HTML email images are converted to attachments when email viewed

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



I'm using Outlook 2000 SP3. I use the INBOX for mail from Earthlink and a
subfolder, under the INBOX, for email from Comcast.net.

HTML email from Earthlink, with embedded images received into INBOX are
converted 'on the fly' into an attachment after initially, and momentarily,
being displayed within the email message. Once the image is moved into an
attachment, a place holder remains in the email message. The same email
message, when sent to my comcast mailbox, is received into the email
subfolder (by way of Outlook rules) and the image is NOT converted into an
attachment.

What is causing this situation?

When outlook was originally installed, the HTML images were viewed in the
message body. After some event (SP3 being applied?), Outlook now modifies
the INBOX HTML email that contain images, and moves the image(s) into an
attachment, but only for the INBOX mail, not the INBOX/COMCAST mail.
