Default How do I get a gif image to run in rich text email?

I want to put a motion gif image in a rich test format email using Outlook
2000.
I'm using the rick text format because I've inserted a media clip I want the
reciepient to click & run.
The Gif file will run in HTML format but the media clip can't be run by just
clicking on it unles the reciepient edits the message & clicks on it then.

How do I get both to work in one email format?
