Introduction to Email Attachments
In today's digital communication, attaching relevant files and information to emails is crucial for effective correspondence. This video will guide you through the process of attaching different types of elements in Outlook, ensuring your messages are comprehensive and informative. -
Creating a New Message
To begin, let's create a new email message. Click on the 'Insert' tab in the Outlook ribbon. Here, you will find several commands available under the 'Include' section. -
Attaching Files
The first option in the 'Include' tab allows you to attach a file. A list of the most recent documents you have worked on will appear. You can also browse your PC to find the file you wish to insert. -
Attaching Outlook Items
The second option enables you to attach an Outlook item, such as other email messages, tasks, contacts, or calendar items. When you click on this option, a window will open, allowing you to choose the specific element to insert. You can decide whether to attach it as a file or to copy the text only. -
Inserting Business Cards
For this example, we will insert several types of elements, starting with a business card. Click on 'Other Business Cards' and select the contact or contacts whose business card you want to insert. This will appear in the body of the message and also as an attachment. -
Inserting Calendar Items
Next, you can insert a calendar item. By selecting the calendar option, you can choose the range of dates and details to include. This function will add a snapshot of your calendar in the body of the message, as well as an attachment, similar to the business card. -
Viewing the Message
Once you have added the different elements, the recipient will receive a message containing all the attachments. An 'Open This Calendar' button will be available at the top, just above the recipient's name. By clicking on the message, you can view it in the reading pane, along with the calendar element, contact, and task. -
Accessing Business Card Details
Finally, by clicking on the business card, you can display its complete details, which you can save and add to your contact list. This feature enhances your ability to manage contacts directly from your email. -
Conclusion
In summary, this video has demonstrated how to attach various elements to an email in Outlook, including files, business cards, and calendar items. Mastering these skills will improve your email communication and ensure that your messages are informative and well-organized.
