Could it be that she didn't save it?
Does she still have the email?
It could be that her email isn't open or deleted therefore it couldn't open the document from recent opened files.

she's probably screwed. attachments are usually saved in a temp folder, which one depends on where the email was opened from. if the cache was cleared after she closed down her email program, the file is gone.
