Here’s a really handy tip.
• Locate a file anywhere on your hard drive that you want to e-mail, right-click the file’s icon, click Send To, and then click Mail Recipient. A new mail message will open with the file attached and ready to send. But what’s really speedy about this tip is that your mail program doesn’t launch. This action creates only a single new mail message.
• Now, to send your attachment, simply type the recipient’s e-mail address in the To text field, add any accompanying message, and then click the Send icon. The subject and attachment fields are already set.
These tips are from the book, Windows XP Killer Tips by Kleber Stephenson, ISBN 073571357X.
