    This was getting SO frustrating, but I just added my Outlook email on Gmail through the Exchange tab, and now I can finally send work photos from the field as actual attachments.

    Thanks for the tip. I switched to mymail for android - it's awesome - no problem attaching photos,  it's faster, and doesn't have that annoying "can't open message" bug. It's astonishing that Microsoft's product is so inferior - it's a disgrace!

    I don't think this is a Microsoft issue. Samsung is Tweaking Android a little for this to happen.

    So for now I am using the Samsung Mail app POP/IMAP/365 work great, attachments work fine as well.

    Work around is using Samsungs Mail App

    No one is listening at Microsoft...it's a problem with Outlook...all other platforms attach a pix as a file but Outlook embeds inline. It's crazy. I just don't understand why this can't be fixed now.
