How to Open Attachments on the HTC EVO
If you receive email with an attachment on the Sprint HTC EVO, you don't need to wait to open the attachment on a computer. The EVO supports opening email attachments on the device, as long as the phone has an application installed that is capable of opening the attachment. To save on bandwidth, the EVO does not download email attachments automatically. You must download the attachment before you can open it.
