I have Windows 2002 and lost my settings. I don't want my attachments in the
body of the email but want it up in the header. How do you change the
settings so attachments are put there instead of the body of the email.
 
Change your message format to HTML or Plain Text;
Tools-> Options-> tab Message Format

The "header" to which you refer is shown ONLY in your e-mail client and
is an infobar to show the list of attachments. There is no header added
inside the e-mail.

You are using RTF (aka TNEF) to compose e-mails. That means the
attachments will be shown within the body of the e-mail. The only
e-mail client that can read Microsoft's proprietary RTF format is
Outlook. Not even Microsoft's Outlook Express can handle RTF. So stop
using it. Unless you can guarantee that you recipients also used
Outlook (and you and them are all within the same Exchange mail server
organization to prevent corruption of the attachment), you should be
using plain-text or HTML formation to compose your e-mails.
