Attachments

  • Attach files in the composer, or drag and drop them into the body; images embed inline.
  • The composer keeps a list of attachments with thumbnails.
  • If you mention an attachment but forget to add it, the composer warns you before sending.

Add from VNCfiles in the composer toolbar lists the files in your own VNCfiles space.

  1. Select Add from VNCfiles.
  2. Search by name if the list is long.
  3. Tick the files to add, then select Attach - the count of chosen files is shown.

They arrive as ordinary attachments, with the same upload progress as a file from your device. Your VNCfiles permissions apply when the files are read.

You can also start in VNCfiles: select Send by email… on one or more files there and the composer opens with them already attached - see Send files by email.

  • Download an attachment, or drag it out to your file system.
  • Preview supported types inline: images and PDFs on desktop and mobile; the composer’s attachments open on click.
  • A .eml (message/rfc822) part displays as a nested email inside the message.
  • TNEF (winmail.dat) is extracted so its real attachments show.
