Thank you, but now I have another problem: I do not know how to access my
pictures that are located in a saved e-mail. And, the pictures I have in My
Documents I cannot access because when I Insert l Picture, I do not get a
full listking of my documents to choose from. When I try to get a picture
from My Pictures, I only end up with a bunch of small boxes. And finally, I
don't need Insert l File Attachment because I know that the image will work
there. Are you ready to give up on me yet? Thanx --Kira

You can't copy/paste a picture. You *WILL* get a red X that way. You have to
either Insert | Picture and Browse to the folder it's in to insert it, or
Insert | File Attachment and Browse to the folder with the picture.

Do it that way and see if it's in Sent Items when you send it to yourself.

Steve,
I do not know anything about sizes. I did check my Sent folder, but
found
nothing to indicate a size. I went to CTRL-F3, but I don't know how to
tell
if it shows whether or not the image is there. I could not actually see
it -
where it should have been there was a long line of "=20". When I forwarded
the image as an attachment, it did include it. I am unable to send myself
a
message with an image brecause I cannot get the image to copy & paste into
the message. I get the same box with the red "X" in it.
Am I just not computer literate enough for you to help me? I know I am
very limited. Thanks Steve, --Kira

Check the size of the message in the sent items folder and see if its the
correct size to include the image. You can also do a CTRL-F3 on the
message
and see if the source code shows the image is contained there or not.
Also
try Message | Forward as attachment and see if that includes the image
then.
Some email programs may not follow proper internet rules, so try sending
a
message to yourself and include an image and make sure that works and
then
try forwarding it to yourself and see if that works.

A box with a red "X" in the corner appears where the picture should be.
It
is
the same in my Sent Items folder
I am using HTML and send pictures with messages is checked. Thanks
for
responding.

What happens when you try? Do the pictures show in Sent Items? Are you
using
HTML?

Tools | Options | Send | HTML Settings. Make sure Send pictures with
messages is checked.
