Drag and Drop Attachments in Outlook Web Access

Here's an Outlook Web Access (OWA) feature that's in some ways little known. Although if you search for it, you can find articles talking about it. It's the ability to drag and drop attachments on to a message. What makes this possible is our S/MIME control. 

Try it out. Install the S/MIME control from the Options page and then bring up a new mail message. Now select a couple files, drag them over and drop them on to the body of the message. They get added to the attachments list just like that. It's so much better than having to post each individual file attachment which is typical of a web app, don't you think?

    I am using OWA 2003 and was wondering if there is a way to have it open file attachments in thier native program instead of within a new broswer window? For example, when opening an .xls file have it open the file in Excel instead of within another instance of IE.
