With Windows mail, I can forward e mails as attachments but can't see how I do that in Outlook. Is it possible? The reason I ask is I want to send several to the same recipient.

    Thanks for that. So you have to make an option each time, whereas in Windows Mail, if you right click you can either forward or forward as attachment?

    AFAIK there isn't a shortcut to forwarding differently to the set option...

    1. Highlight all the emails you want to attach [if they are not contiguous - single click the first one, then hold down Ctrl and single click the second, keep Ctrl held down and single click the third, etc].
    2. Click forward.


    Alternatively, open a new email message and drag the emails you want to attach "into" it. Either use method above to select them all and drag in one go, or drag them across individually.

    The first method only works if there are more than one selected.

    The drag and drop will work for any selection - now why didn't I think of that ;)
