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

    This would be very helpful for folks that need to add others to an email chain.

    My scenario:

    Email is received with multiple attachments (many documents and pics), but I need to add a few others directly.

    Current options:

    1. Reply all, drag and drop the 10 attachments into the reply email, add additional email addresses or @ someone to add them
    2. Forward, then copy paste all of the existing recipients, as well as add additional addresses or @ someone.

    Two ways to fix this:

    1. Reply all with attachments and then I can easily @ someone
    2. Forward & include original recipients.

    A global titan like MS that had $65B+ in revenue in 2024 should have the expertise to make this happen very easily.

    that feature USED to be available as an option, but similar to other things MSoft has done, they took a useful feature and took it out !!!

    Very frustrating really.

    What I find odd, is if you're using the browser version of outlook, you can reply all, and if you add a recipient, then there is a pop up that says "Do you want to add the attachment for 'new recipient.' ?"

    This feature is now live in "New" Outlook desktop version. Just noticed it today!

    Just a the new recipient and look for the small message at the bottom of the reply window.

    Thank you Zoey for this workaround at least, it helps a lot, but it does not fix the situation when there are more attachments, another "clicks" and "copying" but still at least for cases with 1 attachment it is very helpful! :)

    The best option would be simply the button "Reply to all with attachments", hopefully one day.. :(

    This is a fundamental requirement, MS should prioritize this function
