Default delivery option to email with attachment

Default delivery option to email with an attachment - currently we need to click 10 times to run a report with email delivery options but instead, it's a good idea to have an email with attachments run options in my preferences to just email report with attachment always.

    IBM seems to have gone the opposite direction and in 12.04 have made attach link the default option and not enabled users to configure this to their site preference. This is a very backward step.

    Please allow sites to configure this to their own preference.

    Hello,

    The ability to set the default to sending an attachment in email (instead of the default of sending a URL to the report) was available in pre 11.1.7 versions. It saved our users so many headaches because they didn't have to worry about attaching the report. Now if they forget to select this option, they are hassled by users who did not receive the attachment. Please restore this feature.

    Thank you,
