Fairly frequently, when I forward an email that contains an image, I get
this warning:

"One or more of the pictures in this message could not be found. When you
send this message the pictures will not be included. Are you sure you want
to send this message?"

Any idea why this is happening? Thanks.

Make sure you don't have those pictures open in another program.

Thanks. No, I don't have the image open anywhere else. It's usually just a
small banner image included in an email from someone else. If I then
forward this email back to myself, I get the below warning. If I then say
yes, when the email is received it arrives with the standard warning "Some
pictures have been blocked to help prevent the sender from identifying your
computer. Click here to download pictures." I click here and it downloads
the picture that a minute ago it said it couldn't find.

I can't figure out why if Windows Mail can't find the picture, how does it
manage to send it anyway?

Check your security settings:
Tools, Options, Security, uncheck "Do not allow attachments..."
and uncheck "Block images..."

Thanks, I had the same problem and followed your instructions and everything
works fine.

I'm running Vista and get the same message. I tried to find the setting to
change,but it not like XP that I used to have. Any ideas?

You can't find "Tools" on the toolbar of the main WinMail screen?
Make sure you're not in the message composition screen.

Thanks. I don't want to disable these important security features. Ah, but
wait a minute: I think now I get what you're saying here. You're saying
that I'm blocking images in HTML mail. Then when I go to forward the email
to someone, WinMail sends the email **which does still have some sort of
pointer to the image that I've blocked**, but of course it can't find the
image because I've blocked it and it generates this message. Is that right?

But when the forwarded email is received, the recipient can receive my image
if they want to.
