Which modern picture should I get?

How can I view the picture in my mail which does not get downloaded?

  • Some file recieved in the mail box do not open. A small box appers with a red cross mark. Write click and then clicking "open the picture" also doesn't work.

  • Answer:

    Problems with images arise in three areas: conversions between the various email formats (Plain Text, HTML, and Rich Text), how images are actually carried within email, and how the email program chooses to display them. At least one common cause for "red X's" in your email is if the mailer, while displaying the email containing that reference can't locate the picture the result is a red X. The picture could have been removed, the server holding it could be down, or your machine could be disconnected from the internet. All have the same result. Also could be your browsers security feature whereby all remote images from untrusted addresses are displayed as red X's by default. In order to view the images you must either add that sender to your safe sender's list, or right click on one of the red X placeholders and specifically tell your browser to download and display the images. Most email programs that display HTML email actually use a browser such as Internet Explorer to do so. That implies that any settings you've made to your browser will also impact your HTML email. One such setting controls whether images are displayed at all. Turn that off in your browser, and chances are you've turned it off in your email as well. Some email programs may understand HTML email, but not the referenced to images as hidden attachments. Email programs must save embedded images to disk in order to display them. If there's not enough room or some other problem, then that may fail and the images not appear. As you can see there are a lot of reasons that things might not work.
