Ok Jim, I am actually using my secondary identity at this time and not my
main. Will go to my main and set it up and try again.
I've got a lot of emails in OE (most in separate folders) but perhaps I need
to have a big clean out first? Only about three in the deleted items box but
plenty in the sent and received boxes.

Then one last suggestion before giving up would be to create a new
identity, switch to it and create a mail account and test it. It's quite
possible that there is some registry corruption in your existing identity
that is causing the problem, particularly if it is the default "Main
Identity" created when Outlook Express is first started after
installation. If that works, you can import your messages from the old
identity and then delete the problem identity. Good luck.

Thanks Jim and the answer is yes. I have also carried out "spyware" and
virus checks without any being picked up (clean system).......

Look in Tools/Options/Send and click the HTML button for Mail Messages.
Is the choice to "Send pictures" checked?

Using Win XP Pro SP2 and OE 6.002900.2180.
When trying to "Insert" a picture from My Pictures folder OE "freezes"!
I then need to close the program and start over again. I can carryout
all other normal functions with OE. What could be causing this? All
Windows updates/patches are up to date.
