2.  Choose the location from which you will select the attachment.  Select:

a.  Contact – to attach a contact from the address book

b.  eFile - to attach from the eFile file system (eFile will only allow viewing/editing for .doc, .xls, or .txt files)

c.  Device - to attach a file from the native device file system (including pictures stored by the device camera) or a file on the SD Card (if equipped).

Note:  If selecting an attachment from the native device file system, select Device, then choose the file path /store/home/user/.  You may select attachments from directories containing documents, pictures, music, etc.  (The picture directory is where the device’s camera stores pictures.)

.Doc or .xls files should be saved in and sent from the eFile file system.
