Outlook Express saving JPG attachments correctly

[Bruce]

I have recently down loaded the Microsoft Outlook Express
Upgrade from 5.0 to 6.0 and I have lost the option to save
attached JPG files as a as JPG file they default saving
extension to a NWS file extension which is not acceptable
to my editor. Is this a known problem and or is there an
easy fix?

this is a big problem and is part of Microsoft's idea for
security control. it is not just jpegs that you can not
attach. You can not attach any files, without changing
their extension, as I have the same problem. Bill Gates
gets to decide what you can and can not attach - not you!

The only solution I have found so far is to buy a $39
dollar program called Tweak Pro 3

A person sent me a screen shot of the page in tweak that
allows you to check file extensions you want to be able
to send or receive as attachments.

America is a beautiful place to live: Microsoft mucks
things up and other companies make money selling
solutions. Capitalism is a wonderful thing. It is just
hard to believe that the smartest man in america today,
could make things so difficult that we can not even send
a simple jpeg picture in an em!
