When I recieve an email with pictures imbedded in it, I cannot right click
and copy it as a jpg file to my photos. Why is this? What setting do I have
wrong? Help!

Which version of Outlook?
If this is Outlook 2007 right-click and choose Copy then paste it into an
imaging application such as Paint and save it from there.

Tried that and it will not do it. Yes it is 2007. I since found the answer,
copy and click on desktop when it asks if you want to save to desktop say no,
then you can save it on the harddrive as .jpg file.
thanks.

The method I mentioned certainly works for embedded images. embedded images
can't be saved otherwise.
"Attached" images can be saved directly in the format they are received.
