| 156962 | 2003-07-02 08:59:00 | My daughter in London (a kiwi) has asked me to ask this question. She puts together a newsletter and makes it up as an HTML page. When she sends it out she does not want the recipients to get it with the images as attachments as well as seeing them within the page. Sometimes it works fine and that is what happens and other times it is not. Why is that please ? [As an example she says that when I send her a page from Press F1 she always get the images as attachments as well as within the page, but usually she only gets the web page on its own when other people send her different web pages (than PressF1)].

| 156963 | 2003-07-02 10:19:00 | I will make a guess: It depends on the way the page is encoded. She gets the images as attachments so the images can be seen in the HTML page, as they are not embedded in the page itself but only linked to it. So in reality the images are only travelling once. If they were not in as attachments the HTML page could not show them, as they would not be available, and would show as placeholders (little red crosses). E&OE |

| 156964 | 2003-07-02 10:53:00 | As far as I know, the only way one could send a webpage with images without sending the actual images as attachments would be by getting the page to download the images off the internet using http, if that was possible in her case, she probably wouldn't send the pages as email in the first place, the only very bleak answer that I see to this problem is that she could use a host like geocities to store that images and link the pages to those images. eg: http:www.pcworld.co.nz/images/logo_pcw.gif |

| 156965 | 2003-07-06 09:43:00 | Well, it appears that I may have had success. I tried an experiment by going into "Format" and unticking "send pictures with message". I sent a PressF1 page and my daughter says it was a success. She then tried it herself by sending her newsletter to the main person (in New York) who had been having problems receiving and it worked. Are we naive or is that the solution !?? Is it that simple ? - it seems to work. Misty |
