About files and attachments
You can view and download attachments and save them to the BlackBerry® device memory or on a media card. If you delete an email message
that contains an attachment that you have downloaded, the attachment is not deleted from your device. If you save an email message that
contains an attachment that you have viewed, the email message and the attachment are saved in the device memory until you delete the
email message.
If your email account uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports accessing files on your organization's network, you can preview files
from your organization's network and save the files to your device or attach them directly to email messages without downloading them. You
can use the files application to view a list of all the files saved on your device. You can also rename, move, and delete files on your organization's
network from your device.
To change attachments or files that you download, you can use third-party editing applications (such as Documents to Go®) that are designed
for use on BlackBerry devices.
