If an email has a paperclip icon on its far-right side in the inbox, that means the sender attached a file. Never open a file attachment from someone you don’t know! Even if you do know the sender, be careful when opening attachments, as they may inadvertently come with viruses.

Your new messages always appear in the Inbox. If you haven’t read a message yet, it’ll have a blue circle to the left of the sender’s name. If there is a file attached to the email, you’ll see an icon for that type of file to the far right of the email’s title.
Avoid opening attachments sent by people you don’t know. Sometimes viruses hail rides on attachments and they could potentially infect your computer. Photos, videos, Microsoft Office documents, PDFs, and many other file types will display large previews. Other attachment types may not. To download an attachment to your computer, click the small downward-pointing arrow over a horizontal line near the top-right corner of the attachment to download the file.
