Changing Email and Attachments Settings

The Problem Reports list can send email notifying employees when an item is assigned to them. To enable that feature:

Advanced Settings can also enable or disable file attachments to list items. Attachments allow users to upload files (such as a screen shot of an error) when they create a new item. In the case of the Problem Reports list, attachments are very useful but for other list types they may not be needed.
