Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

Hi, This problem only happens when sending pictures from my work email addy
to my home computer.

RE: Emailng jpg pix 100kb or less from work that has Windows 2000 with
Outlook 2003 to my personal email addresses on my home computer (Vista) with
Comcast & Yahoo.

If I email pictures from my work email addy (either attached or inserted
into the email body) to my personal email addy and hope to see them on my
home computer using Windows Mail with Comcast, the email comes in without the
attached or inserted picture and there is no message that there was a
problem.

I made sure I'm on the safe list and not on the blocked list.

When I am at work and open Comcast email on the internet, the attachments
are with the emails and open fine.

When I am at home and open Comcast email on the internet instead of via
Windows Mail, there are no attached or inserted pictures.

When at home, the same emails with attached photos sent to my Yahoo email
are delivered and open fine.

Can anyone help me? Thank you, paw

Re: Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

Is there a setting in the Comcast page to show embedded or attached files?
Most sites don't show some content like that unless it is set that way.
Most have a paperclip icon or such to show the attachment.

Re: Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

That would affect all embedded or attached files. My work addy is the only
addy I can't receive pix from on my home computer.

Re: Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

is it possible that your firewall at work is stripping attachments and/or
embedded images?
I have seen that happen in an attempt to limit corporate leaking of
confidential information.

Re: Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

Make sure you are not using RTF format in Outlook. OE and WinMail cannot
decipher RTF format, so send via plain text or HTML from Outlook in order to
receive correctly in WinMail.

Re: Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

Steve, The RTF vs. HTML format would affect delivery of jpg pix from only one
email address? I thought that was for text. Thanx, paw

Re: Emailed pictures from my work email don't reach home email

It will affect any attachments. The text is still readable, I think.
