E-mailing photos in "My Pictures"

[/rosie]

I have tried everything to get my phots E-mailed but they
won't go thru. I get as far as "E-mail this file" and
downsize the pictures and click send and nothing
happens. It says my pictures are ready to send. What is
wrong??

=====================================
Do you download your Hotmail messages and
read them in Outlook Express or do you manage
your e-mail on the Hotmail website?

If you open Outlook Express and add your Hotmail
Account...(this will allow you to read and send
Hotmail from Outlook Express)

Tools / Accounts / Add Mail...

And then follow these instructions:

I cannot guarantee it, but the following method may work:

How do I make OE my default mail client?

Go to...Start / Run...and type the following:

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /reg<

(copy paste everything between the > < but not including the > <)
(But first...Check the path to msimn.exe to make sure it is correct)

Click...OK...

Then open Internet Explorer and go to...Tools / Internet Options /
Programs tab...and set OE as the default mail (and news) program.

Good luck.

I just use the Hotmail site. Don't know if I can do

what you are suggesting, but I will try.

I tried what you suggested but I don't understnd what

thwe "msimn.exe" is. Can you walk me thru this. I don't
know a lot about computers and I'm afraid of really
screwing up. Where do I start with the Tools??

 

[Paul Ballou]

"msimn.exe" is the executable file to launch Outlook Express

If you are trying to make OE your Default mail handler then open OE | Tools
| Options | General Tab | Click Make Default for Mail Handler option.

====================================

What ...exactly...have you tried?

Did you go to...Start / Run...and type the following?

"C:\PROGRAM FILES\OUTLOOK EXPRESS\MSIMN.EXE" /reg<

(copy paste everything between the > < but not including the > <)
(But first...Check the path to msimn.exe to make sure it is correct)

Click...OK...

=====================================

As for the *Tools*...

Open an Internet Explorer window and
on the toolbar at the top of your screen...
Left Click...*Tools*...then proceed to...
Internet Options / Programs tab...and set
OE as the default mail (and news) program.

Maybe you should go to the Outlook Express 6
newsgroup for assistance as I previously suggested.
