Attaching Files in Emails

Using Comcast Vault, you can select files that were backed up with Secure Backup and Share send them as attachments to emails.

The maximum permissible size of all the attachments you can send in an email is 5 MB. Therefore, for sizes greater than 5 MB, a message with secure download links will be emailed instead. These links are accessible by anyone (Public).

To send files as email attachments:

  1. In Comcast Vault, open one of these pages.
    • Everything
    • Photos
    • Music
  2. Select a file. To select multiple files, hold down the Ctrl or Shift key.
  3. Perform one of the following actions:
    • Click in the top toolbar.

      This button is not available on the Music page.

    • Right-click the selected files and select Email as Attachment.
    The Send Attachments dialog box appears.

  4. In the To field, type the email address for someone you want to share the link with. Separate multiple email addresses with semicolons.
    Note: As you type, the field autocompletes email addresses of contacts imported from your Comcast Universal Address Book.
  5. In the Subject field, type a subject for the email.
  6. Compose the email message with appropriate information, and then click Send.

The selected files are sent as email attachments. Any new contacts that you specified in the email are automatically added to your Local Address Book.
