Tha depends on your email program.

JoAnn! You know that isn't true. No matter what e-mail program she has, she
can go to Yahoo! and sign up for an account. She can also go to MSN or
Google and sign up.

Even if she already has an e-mail account that she reads with Outlook or
Outlook Express or Thunderbird or any of a dozen others, she can send an
e-mail through Yahoo! by using the method I described for her.

Why sign up for another email address when chances are they already have
one? It's a royal PITA to have to check multiple email addresses and
remember who has which address.

I agree. But if one has an email program that they don't know how to use
anyway -- the OP is asking how to send an attachment -- then it seems to me
that they don't what they do or don't have, and a new e-mail address is
likely to be the only one they will use.

So rather than learn how to use a tool they already have, you think it's a
better idea to have them learn something else? Okay. I don't agree with you
but your way is a doable option.

Given the questioin asked, the only reasonable assumption is, 1.) she has no
e-mail program that she uses, else she would not ask how to do such a
fundamental operation as attach a file, 2.) since she has no e-mail that she
uses, then giving her information on how to create an e-mail account seemed
a reasonable thing to do.

Clearly, using an account she already has is better than making a new
account, but if she had an account and needed to ask how to attach a file,
starting from scratch is not any more difficult than using what she already
has.
