A method and computer-readable medium are provided for navigation between
attachments to electronic mail messages. According to the method, a list
of e-mail messages is displayed that includes header information
associated with each of the messages. When one of the messages in the
list is selected, a determination is made as to whether the selected
message has attachments. If the selected message has attachments, an
identifier is displayed adjacent to the header information for each
attachment. The identifier indicates that the attachment is associated
with the selected message and may provide other information such as the
type and size of the attachment. The identifiers are displayed in a
manner to indicate clearly to a user that the attachments are associated
with the selected e-mail message. The identifiers may be selected to
preview the corresponding attachment.
