What to do with Email attachments



One of the main purposes of my classes is to help parents and grandparents with the photos sent to them in emails.  Emails come as text and the photos come as attachments.  When you click on the email your can read the text and usually see a symbol as the attaachment.  Righ-click on the attachment and a small menu will appear.  One of the choices will be "Save As".  Left click on the "Save As" and a folder box or "tree" will appear.  Select the proper folder to put it in (Make sure the folder is in MY Pictures) and hit the "SAVE" button (usually in the lower right-hand corner.  Now you've saved the email attachment (usually a photo) in your My Pictures folder and you can open it with your photo editing software!
