    If the attachment has been attached how can the sender open it and review before sending? In outlook I can simply double click the attachement to open and review, then close and send. I need something similar from the web based version.

    thanks,

    If yuo include an automated siganture that contains e.g. a company logo, Outlook thinks it is an attachment so the warning doesn’t get triggered.
