How to save gif embedded in a message

[Pincopallino]

I have a message in HTML format in an outlook .msg file.

The message has an attached .txt file and
many "embedded" .gif animated files. When I open the .msg
file with Outlook 2003 I can see the message and the
images that animate.

When I try to "save attached files..." I can save only
the .txt file.
If I try to right click and "save as..." a .gif image I
can only save a .bmp image, that is a single frame of
the .gif image.
If I try to right click and "copy" the .gif image I can
paste only a single frame of the .gif image.

I simply need to extract the .gif files. How can I do?

Thank you.

of it bcoz when i SaveAttachment, only 1 "none" appeared in the sub-menu n
therefore only the 1st picture could be saved, any solutions? thx
