Hello all,

For those of you having problems adding attachments under gMail:

This is a Flash related issue (ie: you don't have the correct flash version under OS/2, or (if you by some chance do) FlashBlock is interfering). The simple fix is to "tell" gMail that you wish to use the original "Browse" attachment method.

To do this, simply log into your gMail account, click "Settings" on the top right, and scroll down to "Attachments" near the very bottom. You will see the following options:



Attachments:   
[ ] Advanced attachment features - See progress bars when attaching files to messages, and attach multiple files at once. Requires flash.

[X] Basic attachment features - Attach one file at a time and don't show progress bars.



Select the "Basic attachment features" option, save, and viola! Attachments now work for gMail and OS/2!
