How to give attachments permission in mail

When sending an email with attachments, you may encounter issues with permissions, especially if the recipient's email client or server has strict security settings. Here are some common issues and solutions to help you give attachments permission in mail:

Issue 1: Attachment blocked by recipient's email client

• Solution: Check the recipient's email client settings to see if they have blocked attachments with specific file types (e.g.,.exe,.zip,.rar). You can try renaming the attachment to a more common file type (e.g.,.docx instead of.doc) or compressing the file to reduce its size.

Issue 2: Attachment blocked by recipient's email server

• Solution: Check the recipient's email server settings to see if they have blocked attachments with specific file types or sizes. You can try contacting the recipient's IT department or email administrator to request an exception for your attachment.

Issue 3: Attachment blocked by company email policy

• Solution: Check your company's email policy to see if there are any restrictions on sending attachments. You can try contacting your IT department or email administrator to request an exception for your attachment.

Issue 4: Attachment not displaying in email client

• Solution: Check the email client settings to see if they have a specific setting for displaying attachments. You can try checking the "View" or "Display" settings in your email client to see if there's an option to display attachments.

Issue 5: Attachment not downloading

• Solution: Check the email client settings to see if they have a specific setting for downloading attachments. You can try checking the "Download" or "Save" settings in your email client to see if there's an option to download attachments.

Best practices for sending attachments

1. Use a secure file format: Use a secure file format like.pdf,.docx, or.xlsx instead of.exe,.zip, or.rar.
2. Compress large files: Compress large files to reduce their size and make them easier to send.
3. Use a file sharing service: Consider using a file sharing service like Dropbox or Google Drive to share large files instead of sending them as attachments.
4. Check recipient's email client and server settings: Check the recipient's email client and server settings to ensure that they can receive attachments.
5. Use a clear and descriptive subject line: Use a clear and descriptive subject line to help the recipient quickly identify the purpose of the email and the attachment.

By following these best practices and troubleshooting common issues, you should be able to successfully send attachments and give them permission in mail.
