A file attached to a message is contained in that message, in the Attachments
collection. Outlook neither knows nor cares about the original location of
the file, which may no longer even exist.

If you want to do some work on that file, you need to save it to the local
drive using the Attachment.SaveAsFile method. You can then modify the file,
remove the original attachment, and add the new version.
