After attaching the photo that you wish to send in the draft email, to reduce the size of the email attachment, tap the “images” button - and you should be presented with up to four options (Actual Size, Large, Medium, Small), each with the image size for your chosen attachments; the current selection will be highlighted.





Select the appropriate image size; this selects the size of the attachment to send and become the default for future email (you can change this at any time).
