Notes
To attach a document from your OneDrive or Windows Explorer, save the email as Draft in Outlook. Then edit the email from you FYI - Drafts folder in your Outlook and add the attachment from there.

Up to 10 files can be attached to an email. There is a total limit of 15MB to the size of the file(s) attached.

When the sent email is filed, you can open the Attachments section and click on the attachment to display the drawer for that attachment. You can also click the Open icon to open the document that was sent as the attachment. The attachment cannot be saved as a separate document in FYI as it is already a filed document.
