Embedded photos

Try emailing a message to yourself with an embedded image and see if you
receive it correctly. I don't know why forwarding it to yourself works when
the other doesn't, so it could be due to whatever program the sender is
using.

I received an e-mail with photos embedded in the e-mail, not as
attachments.
I right-clicked on the first photo and select "Save picture as..." and
then I
get this pop-up: "The system cannot find the file specified". Any
idea
how
I can separate these photos from the e-mail and save them separately to
as
photos to a hard drive folder? Connie


On embedded images in Outlook Express 6.0 email, I am now getting the
mshtml.hlp missing file message when I right click to save an image. After
much reading it appears this file does not exist anyway. I can do a work
around by forwarding the email back to myself and then right clicking on
the
image and this works to save the image without a problem.

The only thing that has changed about my XP Professional system since this
problem started was the installation of IE8 from IE6. I had never
installed
IE7. After reading many posts on the Internet, this problem seems to have
started with IE7. I never would not have upgraded to IE8 to had security
and
support been continued for IE6. At this point I don't have a choice but to
run IE8. Is there any fix for this problem where I don't have to forward
the
email to myself or copy and paste it to Paint to save it?

Messed up first try. The problem is not with Outlook Express. For a
troublesome "Cannot Find mshtml.hlp" check the MessageSource to see which
email client was used. Thunderbird has been the troublesome one. Look at
Content-ID...it should have to computer name for the source. If it contains a
..net , then you see the problem. Before IE7 the file "Save Picture As" was
saved with a .net extension. OE beginning with IE7 no longer tolerates
Thunderbird embedded files of this sort.

An additional comment on 'missing mshtml.hlp". Sending an email to ones self
does not have to go on the Internet. Simply set Outlook Express or Outlook
off-line. Forward the problem email to any address... will
do. Send the message, it will be trapped in the OutBox. The offending
extension will be replaced by the sending computers name. The image can be
saved as "Save Picture As". The message can then be deleted. The image can
also be saved from Deleted Items folder.
