An Attachment is a file that you send along with your regular email or a file you receive with email from someone else. In most email programs, along the top toolbar, it either says attachment or has a picture of a paper clip. On an received email file attachment, when you double click on it, your computer will open the file in the proper program, e.g. Microsoft Word if it is a Word document. To Save the document in this program, you must follow your normal naming and saving routine for that program. Otherwise, the file attachment will remain stored only in the download attachment area of your email program. When the email itself is deleted, the attachment is deleted as well.
