Are the emails you are attempting to insert a graphic image into, formatted
as HTML? You cannot insert a picture into a Plain Text formatted message.

If you are using HTML formatting and getting the error, then it's quite
possible that your existing identity has been corrupted. Try creating a new
identity, switch to it and create a mail account and test inserting an
image. If that works, you can import your messages from the old identity.

Curser is in thesection below the Subject line.
With or without any typing of words; when I use the 'Insert', tnen
a window pops up asking which image or 'Browse' I get a lockup
of O.E. by selecting Browse.

I can 'Attach' images but not 'Browse' to another source than the
alreadyselected Windows Temp folder.

Can someone please pint me to a'fix'?

Many thanks for reading and hopefully replying.
