Outlook send embedded images as attachments

[M.C]

Whenever I send HTML mail with embedded images they are received by other
clients as attachments which cannot be read, but the same message to other
outlook users in the same organisation are received ok with no attachments.

Any suggestion?

I don't want my emails being seen as attachments.

How do you try to include them? What version of Outlook? What mail editor?

Hi Brian,

I insert pictures from file after downloading web page. When you click on
the picture it takes you to the Web page.
Outlook 2002 SP3
Mail Editor MS Word 2002
Mail Format HTML

Sounds like your mail server is set to strip formatting from items sent to the Internet. Ask your mail admin if this is the case and if it can be changed.

How? Do you use Insert>Picture?

Select Insert Tab > Picture > From File > select picture and insert.

I don't have an Insert Tab menu. Where do you see that?
