Windows Live Mail error: "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?"

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.

    Well RON

    This was a "known issue" a full two years ago and there hasn't been any progress in addressing it whatsoever in the intervening period.  I suspect WLM will have gone the way of Outlook Express, and possibly Microsoft itself, before any real effort is invested into responding to this complaint.  The words "lack of respect for the customer" were used by a previous contributor.  All I can say is "And so say all of us".   We were asking nicely for some attention at that point.  Not any more. 

    Lack of choice doesn't equate to being the 'favourite' as British Airways found out to their cost.  The writing's on the wall for Microsoft mate.  If you're part of that gang, kindly do us all a favor and make sure this feedback is registered.

    Hi Everyone,

    Please be informed that this is a know issue and currently on a working state. No ETA at the moment on when it will be resolved. Thank you for your taking your time to raise this issue to our attention.

    As a workaround, Open the original email > [Right click the image] Save as in your computer > Click Forward > remove the picture with an "x" mark and replace it by copying the image from your desktop > Send.

    Best regards,
