In outlook express, I could insert numerous photos in my email. Now with

Windows Mail can onle send two (2). If I try to insert more it will delete

one of the photos already in the email. Anyone else have this problem and is

there a fix for this.

    It's not a problem, it's just different.

     

    Are you inserting them with the Insert Picture button?

    After you insert a picture, that picture retains focus (it has the little

    circles on the corners and sides). When you Insert another one, it replaces

    the one with focus.

    To avoid this, click in the message body, not on an image, then insert

    another picture.

     

    Or, you can use Insert - File attachment

    which allows you to select many files at once, but you can't see them in the

    message.

    I have sent multiple (6 to 8) at a time, no problems. Windows Ultimate 32

    bit, using Windows Mail. My biggest problem with doing this sort of thing

    has nothing to do with Vista, and caused exactly the same long waits on XP -

    I only have a dial-up connection (grins).

     

    Try drag and drop - it works perfectly for me. Whether I add them all at

    once, or individually.
