Life hack that I learned from one of my professors long time ago. 20 years later, I still follow the advice.

When sending a file attachment to someone else, include your name in the file, and additional info too.

e.g. Instead of assignment1.txt do: mariatta_assignment1_cmpt123.txt

This helps them when the recipient needs to download similar file from various people.

I do this now when I upload files too, eg

Mariatta_Resume_for_CompanyX.pdf
mariatta_personalized_pricelist_for_you.pdf
etc
