Hi, can you attach an email to an email, as an attachment, rather than copying and pasting the whole conversation?

thanks

Hi TonTEC,

Yes, you can attach an email to another email as an attachment rather than copying and pasting the whole conversation. Here’s how you can do it in different email clients:

In Apple Mail (macOS):​

1. Open Apple Mail:
   • Open the Mail app on your Mac.
2. Select the Email to Attach:
   • Locate the email you want to attach in your mailbox.
   • Click on the email to select it.
3. Drag and Drop:
   • Drag the selected email from your mailbox into the body of the new email you are composing.
   • The email will be attached as an .eml file.

In Microsoft Outlook (macOS and Windows):​

1. Open Outlook:
   • Open the Outlook application on your computer.
2. Select the Email to Attach:
   • Find the email you want to attach in your inbox.
   • Click and hold on the email.
3. Drag and Drop:
   • Drag the email into the body of the new message you are composing.
   • The email will be attached as a .msg file.

In Gmail (Web):​

1. Open Gmail:
   • Open Gmail in your web browser.
2. Select the Email to Attach:
   • Open the email you want to attach in a new window.
3. Drag and Drop:
   • Drag the email from the new window into the body of the email you are composing.
   • Alternatively, you can forward the email to yourself and then drag the forwarded email into a new message to attach it.

In Outlook (Web):​

1. Open Outlook Web:
   • Open Outlook in your web browser.
2. Compose New Email:
   • Click on New Message to start composing a new email.
3. Select and Drag Email:
   • Open the email you want to attach in a new tab or window.
   • Drag the email from the new tab/window to the body of the new email you are composing.
   • The email will be attached as an .eml file.

Hope it helps.
