original title: Pictures could not be found

I think this problem started with the new Windows Live Mail update a few days ago.  Everytime my wife tries to forward one of her emails with a picture of some sort or another Mail comes back with the message

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

If you answer Yes WLM does send the email and the picture(s) are there but convoluted.  Is there some setting I need to change to get back to the "old" WLM.

    Maybe someone knows why WLM 2011 won't open an .eml attachment even when it's the designated opener.

    So far the only way I've gotten the pictures to forward is to send the original message as an attachjment.  When you forward it to your self, you will see the attachement at the top of the forwarded message.  You can open it and see the original pictures.

    Oops, I see this is already mentioned above.

    I gave up and created a "HOTMAIL "account. Works great.

    I checked your suggestion #1, and it looks like the association with .eml files to WLM is ok in my Windows 7 machine, but I still have the problem. Am I missing something else?

    Hey ECTH     Thanks for this solultion  I was so frustrated because I send a lot of pictures.  Yours is the easiest and quickest way to overcome this flaw in MWL.
