Remind to add an attachment to your email

Attachment Alarm for Outlook in detail

Attachment Alarm for Outlook is a MS Outlook add-in that will always remind you to add an attachment in case you forget to do it yourself.

Attachment Alarm is very easy to use and requires no hard tuning. You just specify the words and phrases that may occur in the body of the message and imply an attachment ("see attachment", "in attachment", etc.) and add these words to the Key words list.
