Basically mail works in the process of Queue.

At first, you have typed your message with some attachments and click send button in your Email client.
It will be moved to the email server (SMTP) and queued that mail.
Now it will communicate with the respective Recepients DNS .
Once it is enabled, it will transfer the message to that recepient email server.
Thus the new mail is downloaded to the email client and the message with attachments is shown to you.
