    The format is beyond stupid.   Hard to believe some engineer thought this was a good idea, then some nit wit signed off on it. I have to use Gmail to send images as attachments.   You hear that MS?  Gmail does what ur app can't.  ur impacting users productivity. Geez, fix this crap.

    This really is pretty stupid. 

    Microsoft can you please fix this. I would like to attach a photo as a regular attachment!

    If any one made a uservoice, share the link.

    has there been a fix posted to send multiple pics from gallery as attachments not imbedded ?

    I read somewhere it has to do with the signature. If you don't use a signature, then you can attach the pictures as attachments. I didn't try it yet.

    I have been having the same issue. I have to send my timesheets in this way and have been asked/told not to yet it cant be helped.

    I deleted the signature....then it allowed me to select 1 photo and share to outlook. but when i tried to select 2 it sent them in the body of the email.

    I cant believe this hasnt been rectified judging by the number of complaints!
