saying something is attached to an email

[alpacinou]

Hello.

I want to suggest something is attached to an email.

Are these correct?

1. Attached to the email, can you find the mentioned document.

2. Attached to the email, is the mentioned document.

Why do we have inversion in those sentences? I have written them myself but I feel like I have seen similar sentences.

Is it also correct to not use inversion?

3. Attached to the email, you can find the mentioned document.

Hello.

Are these correct?

1. Attached to the email, you can find the mentioned document.

2. Attached to the email, is the mentioned document.

The comma makes it confusing.

Why do we have inversion in those sentences?

I don't know.

I have written them myself but I feel like I have seen similar sentences.

Is it also correct to not use inversion?

I don't know.

3. Attached to the email, you can find the mentioned document.

The comma makes is sound like the reader is attached to the email. Interesting!

I don't like any of them. These are more natural:

- The document is attached.

- See the document, attached.

- I've attached the document.​

Or more telegraphically:

- See attachment.

- Document attached.

- See attached document.

- See document attached.

- See document, attached.​

In an email, we often say file instead of document, as in See file, attached.
