Oh well, that didn’t seem to work. 

I changed the setting and then added the attachment.  The attachment did get added to the end of the email, below Mike’s original message, but apparently that wasn’t enough to do the trick.

Mike, thanks for digging up a potential solution, even though it didn’t pan out.
