I want to VIEW the attachment only
Just recently, when trying to view an attachment in GMAIL email, I have noticed that I must now download the attachment to view it. Sometimes I do not want to download the attachment. Can I change the setting? This is a recent change and I am trying to pinpoint if it is a browser setting or a GMAIL setting. Thank you!
