Attaching photos to emails

[SharaD]

I've always been able to email photos from my photo gallery just by clicking
on the 'paperclick' on the email. Recently when I do that, the photo will
attach to the email ok, but then when I attempt to view it, I get a message
that says "JPG is not a valid WIN32 application". What happened?

Thanks.

Can you open JPG files outside of Windows Mail?

 

[SharaD]

Yes, I can open photos in the gallery, for example. Is that what you mean?

It isn't clear to me just what you are doing.
Are you trying to open a photo in a
a) received email
b) sent email
c) email being composed?

When emailing photos from Photo Gallery, you are supposed to click on the
'E-mail' icon on the toolbar in Photo Gallery. I don't see a paperclip in
Photo Gallery.

I'm trying to open a photo that I've attached to an email that I want to send.

I'm trying to open a photo that I've attached to an email that I want to
send.

Double click the attached file in the new mail window.

In the message compose window?
I'm not sure if that is designed to work that way.
Why do you need to open the photo at that point?
