When forwarding emails, pictures are stripped from text & put in slide show destroying original

Here is another request for the next client.  In addition to fixing the problem with forwarding email with images, I would really like the option of attaching images as normal files without sending them to skydrive.  Some recipients don't like having to deal with skydrive, and Microsoft doesn't need to be irritating potential customers.  Maybe there could be a simple button to send images as normal attachments?

For others out there, my solution was to open a gmail account to forward images as attachments. (This could also solve the forwarding problem, but I'm not ready to totally dump Live Mail yet).

If you forward them as attachments you also send all the other E-Mail address on the E-Mail.  That is not a good idea to pass around E-Mail addresses to other people.

Sounds like the same probem I'm having with viewing with 'slide show' (which I do not like) and the red dreaded 'x'.  How will be notified?  On this site?

Hi everyone,

As already confirmed on this thread, this is a known issue with Live Mail that should be fixed in the next release of the client. I'm afraid we still have no exact time to confirm when the next release will be. Updates should be posted in these forums.

For the meantime, you can send the e-mail as attachment instead of forwarding them to your contacts. That should retain all the images in the e-mail.

It not happens in windows 7 but also in windows Vista.  This has been going on for way too long.  We need a solution.
