Notes
Use compressing utilities such as Stuffit and Zippit to keep the file attachment size down.

You may attach only one document per message.

Notes
If you need to attach more than one document to your message, you can use utilities such as StuffIt or WinZip to create an archive of multiple documents.

Check the attachment file-size limit listed in the Post and Reply windows.
