About Joerg Droege
Expertise
I did an education as a Management Assistant in Informatics, I am using the Opera browser since year 2000 & the M2 email client since 2004. I will do my best to answer also other email related questions and email client settings related, etc. But please no Outlook or Outlook Express questions, since I do not use that. (But if you really want to ask in that field, I will sure do try my best to answer your question nicely and correctly anyway :) ). This includes but is not limited to web based email or whatever comes to your mind.

Experience
I am a Management Assistant in Informatics education which was done under the control of the CCI (Chamber of Commerce and Industry). And had to solve various PC, email and other related problems. Using computers since 1990.

Answer
Hello again Carl!

Then the emails where sent with pics included (embeded) and your email client/service couldn't display them. That is why it is suggested very often by experts to send the email itself as plain text instead and attach the pics manually as attachments to the email.

Hope this helps!
All the best!
Bye!
Joerg
