Can I set up my preferences to allow for the attachment to stay connected to
my forwarded messages? How about replies? How about when dragging the
message into a Task for my assistant?

Configure Outlook to forward as attachment. Then the *original* e-mail is
included in your new e-mail rather than a chopped out piece from its body.
If you don't forward the original as an attachment, you are NOT giving the
next recipient an actual copy of the original e-mail. Forwarding inline
means you are giving them a *modified* copy of the original e-mail (so the
recipient won't know if what you say is the original was really the original
e-mail).
How about replies?

Why would you send the attachment back to the person that gave it to you?
They already have the file. Proof is that THEY attached it to their e-mail
that you received and to which you want to reply. They don't need another
copy of the SAME file.
How about when dragging the message into a Task for my assistant?

Someone else will have to answer that since I never bother to do link my
e-mails and tasks together.
