Hi, copy and Paste is the easiest but if you prefer using List view, simply press VO-back slash to open the Downloads folder then navigate to the item you wish to attach then press return. What Mail is allowing you to do here in your original post is to actually attach folders which is quite useful and was not supported in the past.
