Pictures in outlook

If you changed from Ooutlook Express or something like that than one down side is the pictures do not display in the body of the email, they come accross as attachments. I think this is for security reasons.

I loaded outlook from office 2000..I had a few probs like that so I made my default the outlook express. It will still work with the office 2000 program

Do you have the latest service releases/ patches installed?

Check out http://microsoft.com/office/outlook/downloads/default.htm.

Try this:

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

2. Click the Security tab, and then click Attachment Security.

3. Select the security method you want. There are two options, HIGH and NONE. I would try NONE and see if you can see the attachment.

A workaround would be to get an Internet Email account, and have the weather service sent it there. Then you won't have the problem.

Good Luck!

I would go back to the service that is sending you the emails with pictures of the sun and clouds to see if they may have changed the way they send their emails. You would most likely do that in the options section of that web site. Give it a try and let me know if that helped.

I think it might have to do with setting in Internet explorer. Open IE =>tools=> Internet options=>advance=> restore defaults.

in outlook 2000, change the default message format to html.
this worked for us when we had this problem.

Firstly, pictures can only be used in HTML messages. Secondly, pictures must be inserted, not pasted into HTML messages. This is because the HTML message needs a link to a file since the picture is added dynamically. When you paste an image into an HTML message, you will see a border with a blank image. You must delete this and add the image by choosing Insert > Picture.
