Attaching a Gmail email to another email can be useful when you want to share the contents of a specific email with someone or include it as part of a larger conversation. While Gmail doesn’t have a direct “attach email” feature, you can achieve this by copying and pasting the content of the original email into the new email. Additionally, you have the option to attach the original email as an EML file for a more faithful representation. Let’s explore the steps involved in attaching a Gmail email to another email.
To attach a Gmail email to another email, you can follow these steps:
1. Open Gmail:
Go to the Gmail website (https://mail.google.com/) and sign in to your Gmail account.
2. Compose a new email:
Click on the “Compose” button to start composing a new email.
Open the email you want to attach: In a separate tab or window, locate and open the Gmail email you wish to attach.
3. Select and copy the content:
In the open email, select the entire content (text, images, etc.) by pressing Ctrl+A (Windows) or Command+A (Mac) on your keyboard. Then, copy the selected content by pressing Ctrl+C (Windows) or Command+C (Mac).
4. Go back to the new email:
Return to the tab or window where you were composing the new email.
5. Paste the content:
Place your cursor in the body of the new email where you want to insert the content from the other email.

Then, paste the copied content by pressing Ctrl+V (Windows) or Command+V (Mac) on your keyboard. The content of the original email will be pasted into the new email.
6. Include email headers (optional):
If you want to include the email headers (sender, subject, date, etc.) of the original email in your attachment, you can manually copy and paste them into the new email.
These details are usually displayed at the top of the original email.
7. Attach the email as an EML file (optional):
If you prefer to attach the entire email as an attachment, preserving its original format, you can do so by saving the email as an EML file and attaching it.
To save an email as an EML file, open the original email, click on the three-dot menu icon at the top-right corner, and select “Download message” or “Save as” to save the email as an EML file on your computer.
Then, in the new email, click on the paperclip icon to attach the saved EML file.
8. Add recipients, subject, and any additional text:
Complete the new email by adding the recipient’s email addresses in the “To” field, providing a subject, and including any additional text you want to include in the email.
9. Send the email:
Once you’re satisfied with the email content and attachments, click on the “Send” button to send the email with the attached Gmail email.
