Add an email attachment in Mail on iCloud.com

1. In Mail on iCloud.com, at the top of the message window, click the Choose Files button .

2. Select the files you want to attach, then follow the onscreen instructions to begin uploading the files.

   If your attachments are too large to send in email, you’re asked if you want to deliver the attachments using Mail Drop. If you agree and Mail Drop is turned on, the attachments are uploaded to iCloud.

   It may take some time for the upload to complete, depending on the size of the files.

3. To attach more files, repeat steps 1 and 2.

• In Mail on iCloud.com, in the message window, hold the pointer above the attachment, then click the Remove icon .

  You can only remove an attachment before you send the message.

You can’t remove files already sent with Mail Drop. They expire after 30 days.

Mail Drop uploads large attachments to iCloud, where they’re encrypted and stored for up to 30 days. See the Apple Support article Mail Drop limits for Mail Drop limits and system requirements. Recipients can download Mail Drop attachments for 30 days after they’re sent.

1. In Mail on iCloud.com, click the Action pop-up menu in the sidebar, then choose Preferences.

   If you don’t see the sidebar, see Show or hide the sidebar in Mail on iCloud.com.

2. Click Composing, then select “Use Mail Drop when sending large attachments.”

3. Click Done.
