losing animation in Outlook emails when saving

When I try to save animated pictures in emails (not
placed as attachments) the only choice I get is a bmp
file. Because of this, I then have to re-save to a gif
from another photo program. The problem is I lose the
animations.

Is this maybe as simple as changing a setting in
Outlook? I use Outlook 2003.
 
When you get the save box. Even thought the only file extension it gives you in .bmp, ignore it. Leave that as it is and in the File Name box type filename.gif and it should (In theory) ignore the .bmp and save it as a GIF file. This should then keep the animation going
