The way Lois sent me information is to make a genealogy report and then export it as an .rtf file. This can then be attached to your message. You can also save it as a .txt or a .pdf file. If you want to make it easy for people you can simply do File, Export File, selected individuals and then pick who you want, say all descendants of John Hill. Just save it as either a .ged or, if you know they have FamilyTreeMaker, as an .ftw or .fbc file. This has the advantage of letting the file open in FamilyTreeMaker with an index and all, or even be merged into a person's existing tree (I tend not to merge as there's usually a lot of cleaning up to do either before or afterwards to make it match your existing format.)
