Re: photos and attachments in body of email



By default, OE displays any image attachments (JPG, GIF, BMP) at the
bottom of the message text. This is a display only (not a duplicate
attachment) and only affects what you see on your PC, not what the
recipient sees. Whether the recipients also automatically see the image
is dependent on their mail program and its settings. To change whether
or not you automatically see the images on your PC, see the following
article:

Outlook Express Slide Show OE5, OE6
http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/slideshow.htm
In the case of OE6, if the "Automatically Inline Images" key is missing,
it can be added with a value of 0 to disable display of images at the
bottom of the message text. Not having the key or setting it to 1
enables display.

Note: In Windows XP SP2 or Windows 2003 SP1, when Tools, Options, Read,
Read All Message In Plain Text is selected, that also stops the display
of images. (For a quick workaround for the current message, press
ALT+Shift+H)

What other types of attachments are you seeing in the message body in
OE? Potentially, a sender could use HTML and put a video player in
the message body or something similar. But it's not OE doing it
automatically.

Why is it that all my received photos show up in full size (A3) in my
e-mail
body when they are also in an attachment I can open in perfectly nice
viewing
size. Is it something I need to do with my O/E this end or the people
who
send them to me. It also happens with other attachments apart from
photos.
Thanks in advance!
