    I'm really frustrated with this. When people send me pictures inserted in the email I can't save them. I used to be able to do this with OE. Just saved the mail as JPG, but don't understand why I can't do this with Outlook. I'm considering changing clients but don't know who is best to go with. The only reason I'm using Outlook right now is because when I got the new Vista machine it came with Outlook and since I liked using OE I figured Outlook would be nice, too. Well, after using it for a while now I'm thinking I don't really like it that much. Any feedback on this out there????

    Thanks!

    :)

    What happens/doesn't happen when you try to save a pic?

    If I right click all I get is a COPY option. Nothing that says SAVE PICTURE AS. If I go up top and click the SAVE AS option I don't get a JPG option. Only these options: HTM, TXT. OFT. MSG. MHT. All I want to do is save a picture into my picture folder. Am I missing something?

    Thanks for responding.

    You should be able to copy the picture and paste it into MS Paint and then save.

    Well, I'll be darned! Never thought about that. Feel like an idiot now. :eek: I tried to copy/paste it into my Printmaster program but that wasn't working. Totally forgot that I have Paint on my computer. It worked! Thanks.
