E-mail Account

How do I enable my e-mail account to be able to add attachments?

Thanks,

There is no way at present to send or receive email attachments using the facilities of this board.

To send an email with attachments, you must know the recipient's email address and use your own mail application. This greatly reduces spam and prevents harmful attachments (viruses, worms) being sent via the board.

If you wish to send an attachment to a member, I suggest that you send an email via the board without the attachment, but describing what it is. They can reply, if they choose to do so, and then you will have their address and can reply to the reply enclosing the attachment.

You could also send a PM requesting the member's email address, but I would be much less likely to reveal my address to someone who has chosen not to disclose theirs. If the other member's email is blocked, you could send a PM that includes your own email address, but even then, I would be unlikely to reply to a new member (we have seen this in the past where a new person joins the board and goes phishing using PMs).

Thanks, I was being asked to supply my list of gluten websites and food list. Those are on my computer and I did tell those who pm me to send me their regular e-mail site and I would forward my lists to them. Guess I was doing it right after all.

Thanks again.
