Picture not opening in email. Get little red 'X'.

[dr]

Anyone know why I get a blank rectangle and a little small
box with a red 'x' in it instead of a picture sent to me
in the body of a forwarded email. The text and previous
headers show. I'm using OL2000. Thanks.

Are you using Word as the mail editor?

No. That box is not checked in my email formating setup.

To further answer your question. Under email formating, I
have selected HTML. In that settings box I have 'none'
selected for Encode test and neither of the radio boxes
are checked for 1.allowing 8 bit characters or 2. send
pics from the internet with messages.
