Message Replies and Attachments

When replying to a message, you do not have a button for adding an attachment.  The best option to reply to a message with an attachment is to copy/paste the original message into a new message.

To copy/paste the original message into a new message:

1. Open your message by clicking on the message subject in the Messages tool inbox.

2. Highlight your message text and select Copy, then click OK.

3. Click on the Create Message button.

4. Select your recipients, add a subject, and paste your message into the message body. 5. Scroll to the top of your message body and put your cursor above the original message.  Hit the enter button to bring down the original message. 

6. Type your message reply in the message body above the original message.

7. Add an attachment using the Upload Attachment area in Section 3. Click submit to send your message.
