why canʻt I forward an attachment contained in an email sent to me?
Iʻm trying to forward an attachment that was sent to me. I was able to open and view and now am trying to send to someone else and itʻs not sending the attachment. ??? thank you.

itʻs not sending the attachment.
What does this mean? What exactly prevents you from 'sending the attachment'?
I donʻt KNOW what is preventing me from FORWARDING the attachment. That is my question!
I think he is looking for a few hints as to what happens. You cannot click Send? You click send, the messages goes but the attachment does not arrive?
Remember only you can see your computer screen.
thank you, Airmail... Iʻm sorry, I should have been more explicit.
Yes, I am able to hit send, the message goes but the attachment does not arrive.
When you open the copy of the sent message in your Sent folder, do you see the attachment?
to Christ1 -- no, i tried again and the attachment does not appear in my sent folder either.
I'd try saving the original attachment as a file, then re-attaching that file to the new email message.
thank you, Zenos. Iʻll try it and respond to you again. keala
Someone else had a similar issue. I think they had received the initial email with attachment from someone using outlook.
Suggest you try 'Forward as > Attachment'
Did note that outlook was having some issues. http://www.mgdking.com/post/outlook-2016-cannot-forward-attachments-kb4011626-issue
