Replying to a message does not send original attachments with the reply. You can, however, attach other documents in your reply message.
Forwarding gives you an option to send the original attachment or send a different one.
As the sender, you must have an email address set up in WebEOC. However, you do not need to enter email addresses for recipients who have an email set up in WebEOC.
For recipients who do not have email address setup in WebEOC, you can enter one or more email addresses in the Additional Addresses field; this field appears after selecting Generate Email. You can enter an unlimited number of addresses as long as email addresses are separated by a comma.
