When I recieve a message with a photo attached, it shows the attachment icon.
When I open the message, the photo shows, but there is no attachment icon at
the top to click on in order to save or view. When I try to copy and paste
the photo to another place (since there is not the attachment option to save
with) I can copy, but paste is not an option when I try to do that. I don't
get it. I tried forwarding the email to my yahoo account, and it works just
fine there...How do I get it to work in Outlook? I have gmail for that one,
is that part of the problem?

Sounds like your sender embedded the image.
When I try to copy and paste the photo to another place (since
there is not the attachment option to save with) I can copy, but
paste is not an option when I try to do that.

See if this helps:
