Kutools for Office β€” One Suite. Five Tools. Get More Done.

Easily reply to an email with original attachments included in Outlook

Author Xiaoyang Last modified

Outlook natively does not support replying to emails with the original attachments included. Recognizing this limitation, Kutools for Outlook has developed a feature named "Reply with Attachments". This innovative function simplifies the process of including attachments in your replies. By simply selecting the email you wish to respond to and activating this feature, any attachments from the original email are automatically added to your reply.


Benefits of using "Reply with Attachments"

  • Automatic Attachment Inclusion:
    Any attachments from the original email are automatically added to the reply.
  • Ensures Completeness of Communication:
    By automatically including all original attachments in replies, this feature minimizes the risk of oversight, ensuring that crucial documents and information are reliably communicated throughout conversations.
  • One click to complete:
    It's all done with a single click, which simplifies the user's workflow by reducing the number of steps needed to reply to an email with attachments, making the process more straightforward and less time-consuming.
