Question: Create and send e-mail with attachments.
Answer:
Click here to go into the Communications area to create an e-mail message.
Now click here to create your e-mail.
Choose the recipient of your e-mail message.
If you choose any of the "All" categories it will then take you directly into the messaging format below. Enter your subject and message, then scroll down and click "Submit".
If instead, you choose either "select users" or "select groups" the following window will appear:
Section 1 is where you will choose individual people by placing a check-mark in the box next to the desired name. In section 2 you will enter your subject and message. As you scroll down you will see "section 3" for adding attachments to your email. Click the "Add" button in section 3 to add an attachment. If you are not adding an attachment then click the "submit" button to send the message.
Click on the "Browse:" button to add your file as an attachment.
Find the folder where the file is saved (you may need to go several levels into folders in order to find your file)
When you find the file, double-click on it to attach it to your Blackboard email message. (An alternate method is to click once on the file to highlight it and then click the "open" button on the lower right side.)
You will see the file path name has been added to the box near the Browse button. Now click the "Submit button to attach the file to the message.
You are then brought to this screen and you must scroll all the way down and click "submit" again. The previous step of clicking "submit" only added your file to the email message. Now when you click submit, it will actually send the email along with the attachment.
Click "OK" to return to your course.
