opening pictures in attachments

When I receive a list of pics as attachments, I click on the top one in the
list to view it, and it appears fine, but to view second pic must close
viewer and click on second one in list, cannot just hit "next" to see next
pic. Anyway to fix this so all pics can be viewed one after another?

I've never seen any email client that does this...save all the pictures to a
temporary folder in your Documents and open them from there..

Attachments cannot be viewed the way you want them as you describe. They can only be
viewed one at a time since they are not connected or associated with any type of
viewer. There is no way to change this behavior .

Try the following key strokes, while viewing the message with the pictures.

Left Alt, V, H.

Can you see them now?

If I'm not mistaken, Windows Live Mail offers "View as a slide show".

Re: opening pictures in attachments

Yes, it does. It also offers to enlarge the image with 2 options, and also
to view with auto slide change, or manual change.

Re: opening pictures in attachments

No, I don't think so. It's hard to remember because I get very few
emails with multiple pictures.
