Hi Rick, Easiest way is to use SendTo in Windows Explorer, and send it to Mail Recipient, since it attaches the file and opens a new email in your default client. Otherwise, the second method is, in the edit window of the email, choose the Insert tab, tab once and then press the Attach file button and browse to the file using the standard Windows browse dialog.

What am I doing wrong here or how do I attach a zip file anymore?
