Resize photo via Mail not working

I need to resize a photo from Camera Roll, and I see a lot of advice on the web simply to send it to myself via Mail. Supposedly, Mail will offer me a choice among several sizes at which to send it. That would be all I need, but Mail is not doing that for me; it simply sends the photo as is.

I have tried this on my iPad2 (iOS 9.3.5) and my wife’s iPad Air (iOS 11.2.5), with the same result on both. I have looked in Mail’s settings, but found nothing promising.

What am I missing?

iPad Air Wi-Fi, iOS 10.2.1

OK, someone just told me a solution on the iPad Air: attach the image to an email and you'll see the file size in the cc/bcc line. Tap on that file size and you'll see various sizes you could send the image in. Unfortunately, this doesn't work for my iPad2, because no file size appears in the cc/bcc line. I'll have to download an app to do that.
