Hi, is there a function in the outlook to "reply" to the message with attachment included? Not asking about copy paste, or drag in or forward. Simple reply with attachment.

Many thanks

Robert

    review for clarity the lack of the ability to reply in outlook to all with the original attachment: I I would continue to add my frustration to this topic with the "Lack of a Feature" that decreases my daily efficiency by clicking forward and re-adding all the names + one person or downloading and opening files and dragging and dropping again in a new email chain. Give me the option to reply, and reply all with and without the attachment. PLEEEASSEE !!!!

    Has this been updated yet? It's been 2 years. Surely Microsoft can figure out how to do this. Even if it's a window prompt that says, "Would you like to include attachments in your REPLY?" with a little check box that says, "DON'T ASK ME THIS AGAIN."

    Has anyone gotten this to work automatically with VBA?

    Been trying on my side but it wont attach the attachments when hitting reply.

    Im Admin and have checked that it isnt blocked. I want to add it to "this outlook session" so it works automatically.

    Using Outlook Classic when trying to achieve this. Outlook new isnt an option for the end user in this case cause its still missing some functionality.

    I have selfcerted and everything is allowed. ive done a few VBA before and it has run well but here nothing happens. 3rd party software feels odd for this kind of function.

    this is very inconvenient that it is not possible to reply with attachments from the previous email. Seems like a basic feature to me that should be available. In previous versions of Outlook it existed, what is the reason for this disturbing change?

    Agree with this Post--a feature that automatically attaches the original attachment (without save and paste, sending original email as an attachment, etc.) would be very helpful. Yahoo mail has this. Really surprised hasn't been added in later iterations of Outlook--seems so obvious. Thanks!
