Windows Mail blocks access to attachments

I use Windows Vista. When I open an email with a .jpg attachment, the
following message appears on top (free translation from French): «Windows
Mail has blocked the access to attachments of your email, judged unsafes».
But I can see the .jpg photo after the text of the email and the only way to
save it on hard disk is to rightclick on the picture.
Is there an option to eliminate that message and be able to save the photo
by rightclicking on the attachment file instead of on the photo itself ?

Thanks for your help,
André

I also have this same problem. Windows vista does not allow me to send
attachments. Can you help?

Go to Tools, Options, Security, uncheck "Block images..." and also
uncheck "Do not allow attachments..."

If the problem continues, go to Tools, Junk E-mail Options,
Phishing, and uncheck the first box.

Keith, make sure the image you are attaching is not open in
another program.

Also make sure attachments are enabled:
Tools, Options, Security, uncheck "Block images..." and also
uncheck "Do not allow attachments..."

Also go to Tools, Options, Send, Mail Sending Format, HTML Settings,
make sure "Send pictures with messages" is checked.
