I am using Microsoft Outlook form the Microsoft Office Professional Edition
2003. I used to use Outlook Express. I download my E-Mails and open them and
can read the contents while online. If I go off line, I can no longer view
pictures within the document. I pay per minute to be online so wish to see
the pictures off line as I used to with Outlook Express. What settings have I
got wrong?

Thanks from Stew Robinson

Did you select the option to download pictures in the mails where they
disappear? (sorry for getting back to you late - life happens!)

Sorry, I am not computer illiterate, but don't understand the question, I
have opend many of the e-mails while online, seen the pictures in full, saved
the file and exited, when I go back to them when off line the pictures are
once again invisable.

I am not going to go searching for something that you want help with. If
you want me to read it, then post it or a link to it.

Sorry you seem to be upset, the other gent has the same problem as me and I
don't know how to link his query to this one.

I remove all posts older than 1 week so I am not very sanguine about having
to go restore a view (reset the subscription) to help one poster.

If someone wants help, they can quote the prior post for a reference but
don't expect extraordinary help from some of us. It is enough that we have
to post a google link or a MSFT link that you could have found easily if you
had used a MSKB search or groups.google.com search.

Just my modus operandi - others may be different and more forgiving.

Hi Stew,

Sorry I can't answer this for you, but I would still like to add my voice.
I have recently experienced exactly the same problem. I also understand the
Outlook settings for automatic downloading of pictures (I prefer to call them
embedded graphics to avoid confusion) within HTML emails, and I tried every
possible configuration without success. If I am online and I open an HTML
message with embedded graphics they are blocked by Outlook (default setting).
I then right-click and select "Download Pictures" and all of the graphics
will appear as expected. If I then disconnect from the internet (i.e. go
offline or physically pull out my network cable for example) all of these
graphics that I just downloaded immediately disappear from this and all other
messages, and will not reappear until and unless I reconnect to the internet.
I have been researching this problem for several weeks now with no success;
in fact your posting is one of the very few indications I have seen that
others have noticed this issue at all. I agree with you that this is very
frustrating, whether you pay by the minute to be online, or simply like/need
to read your email while offline (like say, in a plane).
I think I read somewhere that these graphics- once downloaded of course-
should be stored in cache for offline viewing. If this is true, then
something is preventing this from working on my computer. If not, this is
certainly a feature that I would like to see implemented in the future.

I too have been frustrated with Outlook2003 and embedded graphics.
I receive Email with embedded graphics OK.
I re send them to myself and they are still embedded and view OK.
I forward them to others who receive them with OL2002 or 2003 or OE and the
graphics disappears or at the best appears as attachments.
This is with HTML or rich text format.

If you send Rich Text to a non-Outlook user, the recipient will not be able
to see any attachments because Rich Text is an Outlook-specific format.

I never send embedded images, so I can't comment on that.
