Default Attaching photo files to OE


"C. Moore" wrote in message
...
We have recently got new computers with XP Home and new Outlook Express
(Version 6). When we write an e-mail and attach photo files, OE adds the
picture to the text portion of the e-mail (embeds it). All we want to do
is
send the JPEG file as an attachment. I have tried to find a method to
turn
this "feature" off but have failed.

Suggestions

This is standard in OE
The important point is to always reduce the photo size for sending via e
mail
The easiest way is to right click on your photo and select "send to " and
then select "mail recipient" . A window then opens and you select he
smallest size and the an e mail opens with the photo attached
Again the photo is also shown in the text
By holding down ctrl you can select a batch of photos
