Lesson 5:
E-mail Attachments

Since the introduction of MIME, you can send attachments along with your e-mail messages.

Most e-mail programs support attachments, though your recipient will need to have the software necessary to open the sent file on her computer.

If you send Grandma that great picture of your kids, she has to have a software program on her computer that will let her open and view the image.

If you send a movie file to someone without movie viewing software, they won't be able to view it.
