Attachment (Research)

A file sent along with an e-mail message. If the attached file is encoded, transmitted, and decoded properly, the receiver of the e-mail can open the file in its original format. Attachments are sometimes unusable because of differences in hardware or software configurations between a sender and a receiver. They are also used as a means of transmitting computer viruses; network administrators typically advise users to open attachments only if they know the sender and expect an attachment and if the message to which it is attached seems legitimate.
