How do I set a reminder to attach an attachment?

[Guest]

So many times I have written an email, saying "Please have a look at the
attachment", then I send the email forgetting to attach the attachment!

Is there some sort of reminder, so that when you hit SEND, a message pops up?

Unfortunately no, but the following suggestion was met with great results at
a corporation I was at:

Add the attachment BEFORE you address it or anything. OR from the
attachment...such as from Word select File/Send to / Page by email, outlook,
email (dependent on what you are sending it from) and then it is attached and
ready to be addressed and commented on.

Hope this helps. If this did not resolve your issue please let us know.

Thanks everyone for your replies!

I was aware of 3rd party downloads to help with this problem, but was just
wondering if I had missed some settings in Outlook somewhere!

I'll take a look at all your suggestions!
