How to attach an email to an email in Gmail

Google has added a new feature that will allow you to attach emails to other emails without having to download them. The feature is currently being rolled out and should be available to all users in the coming days. You don’t have to do anything to enable this feature.

The attached email will be forwarded as a .eml file. When the recipient clicks on the .eml file, it will open in a new window. There is no limit on the number of emails that can be attached, and you can attach as many emails as you want.
