 * To protect personal data, hiding email addresses in the settings or replacing
   them with dummy addresses is strongly advised. You can also [include screenshots](https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#can-i-include-screenshots-or-videos).

 * Thanks for the hint with the configuration of the form for uploading files.
 * Attaching, sending and receiving files now works.
 * However, I only ever manage to attach a single file to a message. How can I upload
   and send multiple files?

 * The form-tag is explained in this way:
   “If you have multiple files uploaded and
   want to attach them into an email, simply line the mail-tags up in the File attachments
   field like this:[your-file][your-another-file]”But not the mail-tag.If I use 
   the mail-tag:[file your-file]I can upload a file. In the form appears “select
   file (!)”.If I insert the mail-tag:[file your-file your-another-file]does not
   appear “select files (!)” and I can still select only one file.If I enter the
   mail-tag:[file your-file] [file your-another-file]the upload button appears twice
   in the form.What should the correct mail-tag look like?

 * Can you please tell me in a short description how to add the button “Files” to
   upload in the form and send multiple files?
