Questions tagged [email-attachments]

Email attachments are file(s) that are sent along with an email. Use this tag for programming questions related to attaching files to an email message, receiving such files, or processing them (e.g. as part of a mail forwarder or spam filter). Non-programming support questions related to email attachments (e.g. what to click on to add an attachment) are off-topic here, but may be suitable elsewhere on the network.

An email attachment is a computer file sent along with an email message. One or more files can be attached to any email message, and be sent along with it to the recipient. This is typically used as a simple method to share documents and images. A paper clip image is the standard image for an attachment in an email client.

Most mail providers also impose a restriction on the file size of email attachments. For example, Gmail restricts the total email attachment size to 25 MB.

It is also common for some mail providers to block certain emails based on email attachment file types due to security issues.

This tag may relate to:

  • The process of attaching any file with an email
  • The file itself
