Attached Files in Email Notifications

As a follow-up to last week's blog topic, 'Projectmates Email Notifications and Reminders,' I would like to make a few comments about file attachments and email notifications.  When sending any type of email notification through Projectmates, if the item contains file attachment(s), Projectmates will send a link to that file in the email.  Emails from Projectmates will never contain attachments.  This will prevent emails from being rejected due to file size or type.  If a user's username and password is saved (They have selected the 'Remember Login:' option on the login page), they will automatically be prompted to either open or save the file after clicking the link in the email.  If this is not the case, they will be prompted to enter their login information before being able to save the file; therefore, any one you are sending an email to will be required to login to open attachments.  Keep this in mind when sending emails to non-users via the Send To Email option discussed last week.
