Do you mean a GIF? Graphic attachments are by default already open following
the text of an e-mail. You can change the behavior so they do not show
automatically if you wish.
See this article about disabling automatic viewing of graphic attachments:

With Windows XP Home Edition I use Outlook Express. Have you ever
experienced a problem with attachments? With me, I can only preview my
e-mail should it have attachments. Opening any e-mail that contains
attachments always generates a GPF.
