Google has announced a new feature, now Gmail users can attach emails in Gmail. So far, users could forward an email to send to other people or group. Initially, the feature will be rolled out to G Suite users, and later it will be available to all users soon.

Google said in a blog post, "We've heard from you that there are situations where attaching emails makes more sense than forwarding separate emails, like wanting to forward multiple messages related to a single topic. With this new functionality, you can do exactly that. Sending emails as attachments allow you to write a summary email message to your recipients, and attach the set of supporting emails that recipients can directly open in their mail client."

Learn to send email as attachments

- As soon as the feature arrives, you'll notice a new "Forward as attachment" option in the three-dot menu. Click on it to send an email attachment.

- Go to "To" field; add email IDs of recipients. You also have the option to send attachments to people who are mentioned in BCC or CC fields.

- Draft your email with subject and message.

- Click "Send."

- Note that the attached email is converted into a .eml file. When we click on a .eml file, it opens in a new window.

Learn to reply with an attached email

- Open an email and click on "Reply."

- Next, click on the pop-out icon, which appears at the top right.

- Select the email that you want to attach with your reply. Drag the mail into your message.

- Click "Send."

When can we expect this feature?

Gmail has already started rolling out the feature to G Suite users and should be available in the next two weeks.

"Please note that this feature is rolling out gradually. You'll know this feature is available to you when you see the "Forward as attachment" option in the three-dot More menu," further added Google.
