Automatic identification and retrieval of message attachments in a message conversation

Abstract:

Responsive to selection of one or more data files, the device retrieves the one or more selected data files from a local memory of the device or from a server of the messaging system. Optionally, the messages may be identified in response to a request to add one or more new recipients in a reply to a message of a message conversation and selected data files may be forwarded to the new recipients.
