Outlook 2003 - Can't see pics IN mail!

S

Sseaott

When someone sends me email with pictures, they do not show up INSIDE the
mail so I can view them. They show up in the header area of the mail as
files, that I have to click on in order to open them up and view them.

How do I change this so I can view them automatically in the mail without
having to click on file names to open them?

This was automatically done with Outlook Express, but not so with Outlook
2003.

Hope someone can help cause it's getting on my nerves having to click on
multipile files, especially when someone is sending me 20 pics at a time.

Outlook doesn't support inline viewing of images unless they are embedded in
HTML.

Because Outlook is a business application and OE is targeted to consumers
and the needs of both groups are different in some areas. Admins also
consider inline display a security issue and don't want it.
