pasting mail attachments

I am in the habit from my MS Outlook use of copying and pasting photos or other documents that I may be working with into an e-mail and automatically have them show up as attachments; not having to browse for them like a webmail program. I cannot figure out how to simply copy and paste a photo as an attachment like I can in outlook or Mac Mail.
I have read other comments, but wish to have this clarified.
Help Please.

I am in the habit from my MS Outlook use of copying and pasting photos or
other documents that I may be working with into an e-mail and automatically
have them show up as attachments; not having to browse for them like a webmail
program. I cannot figure out how to simply copy and paste a photo as an
attachment like I can in outlook or Mac Mail.

If you want them added as an attachment, you have to add the file using the
Entourage window, or you can drag to the message or to the Entourage icon in
the Dock.

Pasting will insert a photo in the body of an HTML message.

Hope this helps!
