Default Red x

Is your anti-virus application configured to scan incoming and outgoing
mail?

Yes, he is forwarding them but no he nor any of the others are AOL

receive from others with it showing. But, this is the strange part, he is
sending these messages all as a group. He and others including myself all
use the same internet service. The others get these same emails with the
graphics showing. If it was on my end, I wouldn't be receiving from myself
and others with the graphics showing, would I. Plus, if it was on his end,
the others that he sent it to at the same time as myself wouldn't be
getting them with the graphics showing, would they? This is weird. Can
anyone explain this?

If you can send yourself an HTML message with embedded graphics and you
can
see the graphics, not a Red X, in the received email, the problem is NOT
on
your end.

I know this subject has been discussed before but I haven't found
anything
that covers my problem. All email I receive from this one person has the
red
x if there is a picture in it. BUT, all email I get with pictures from
others works fine. Before you tell me it's on his end, he also sends it
to
several other people I know and they say theirs has the picutres and NOT
the red x. I have checked my firewall, virus, etc. settings and can not
find the problem. It's strange to me that all email works except the
ones
from him and that others gets the same email from him that is sent at
the
same time and theirs has the picture. It seems like if it's a setting on
my
end, then why are the others working? Plus, if it's something he's
doing,
why does everyone else get it with the picture and not the red x? Can
anyone explain this? This is weird. Thanks.
