Sending Pictures

I have a Dell Inspiron and I am using gmail as my email for Windows Mail. I
was able to send pictures but apparently I changed something and I can no
longer send pictures with emails. I have tried changing defaults but nothing
works. Anyone have an idea of what I changed?

Hi Bruce,

Double check these settings in Windows Mail:
1. Click Tools.
2. Click Options.
3. Click Send tab.
4. Make sure that you have "HTML" dotted under the "Mail Sending Format". If you already do, then:
A) Click on the "HTML Settings" button.
B) Check "Send pictures with messages"
C) Click Ok
5. Click Ok

Re: Sending Pictures

It is likely that this problem is caused by your antivirus
program. Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee
or Norton security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled,
not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see
