I am getting E-mail from friends and if a picture is sent all I get is a box with an X in it. What is wrong?

Your email program is set not to include inline pictures. It probably removes the picture from the email and either discards it or places it in a temporary attachment file. In Eudora, this is a choice you can make to protect you from unsolicited, offensive pictures showing up in your emails. You can change the settings to see the pictures. In other email programs I imagine that similar choices are possible.

If you're sending email with yahoo, I think it sends pictures as "attachment" that have to be opened. Also, if you it is being sent as an attachment, some people have there email set to not accept email with an attachment.  Depends on their email settings.  CC's are better known as Carbon Copy - you can send a copy of what you are sending to other individuals within the same email address.  Say you are sending your friend an email - and she/he lives with 5 of your other friends; they all share one email address.  This tells the person who retrieves the email, that the email is intended for those other individuals whose names are under CC.  We use this at where I work when my supervisor gets an email that's intended for all of us - he prints it out, copies it and puts it in all of our mailboxes.  Hope that helps.

it sounds like you are not getting the image and there is a html <img> tag in the email.  Basically, the file isnt being sent, but the email message has a 'spot' for it anyway

if the picture received is on yahoo mail and you are not able to see it, then 99% it has been removed because it contained a virus. (yes, a virus) so dont even bother to open those files. \neven tho it was sent from known sources, if it is on yahoo and has been removed, then it had virus.\n\n--x--

If you open your email, get it all set up for your friend, then click attachment and your computer box will come up, find your picture, click on it, then open and it will automatically be put into your email. Hope this helps. to make sure you have done it right click on the attachement before you send it and you will see exactly what you have sent or are going to send.

Probably, your friend sent you a link to a picture, rather than the picture itself. The link is pointing to some place that you can't see.\n\nAsk your friend to send the picture as an attachment, rather than as a link.

I can think of a couple of things that might be hapening.\n\nFirst, your email account will typically have a maximum attachment size.  If people are trying to send you emails with attachment sizes bigger than your account will allow, then the emails either won't be delivered to you, or they will be delivered without the attachments.  This is becoming a bigger problem as people start sending more pictures at a time, and sending pictures taken with cameras that have greater resolution (and thus greater picture file sizes).  If this is hapenning, then the people sending you emails with photos need to send smaller picture file sizes, fewer picture files, or perhaps not send you picture files at all, but post them up on a photo-sharing website, like Yahoo! Photos (see link below).\n\nSecond, your email account will typically have a maximum storage size.  If your mailbox gets close to filling up, and someone sends you an email bigger than the amount of room you have left in your mailbox, then the email won't be delivered.  If this is hapenning, then you need to clean up your mailbox.  One of the things you can do is find out how to save the attachements from your emails onto the hard drive of your computer, then you can delete those old emails to make room for more.

It means that there was a picture that was supposed to be there. But for one reason or another (as stated in the last answer "broken link") it did not appear. The red X is telling you "NO" and the Box is telling you "picture." Thus-No Picture

the pictures u send in an email are not visible because they r not there i.e., only those pictures will show up which have an active link on internet. when u send any picture wihtout attaching them the pictures not really go in emails, only there links goes with them. for eg u send ur pic to somebody that was stored on ur hard drive in say c:/. it will not show up in email as the browser will try to find that c:/ of urs which it will not find.\n\nif the pictures are there (on the net) they may not show up as many sites have them disabled. they do have an option at the starting or end which says something like this "isplay pictures in the email"\n\nu can do a thing attach that pics or first upload them to any free picture sharing sites

yes. Im also facing this problem when I receive mails with Embedded images.\n\nIn such a case, ask the sender to resend the images as atatched files and not as Embedded images as yahoo doen't support that sometimes.

maybe the file is too big that exceeds the quota of the e-mail you want to send. if you're sending pictures, try sending it one by one.

maybe the person who send you the attachments didn't do it properly.  Therefore, the .jpg files are corrupted and you can see them.  If there is not the case, then try to download them. The other choice you get is to use a gmail account....You don't have to download anything. The picture will open in a different window.

IF the icon is a red "X" then the picture can't be opened as it is either not properly attached or missing.  Your ISP or email software may have dropped it off of the email thinking it was a virus file.\n\nIf the picture is still attached it might show as a red "X" and be an email attachment which you can open separate.  Many web based emails do this.

Images that get sent to you vie HTML e-mail work exactly the same way they do on web sites. When you view a web site that has graphic they are “Downloading” from a server so that you can see them. If there is a problem with the server that is displaying the images you will get a “Broken” image (an outline with a little x in the corner)\n\nDepending on the type of image that is trying to be displayed your e-mail client may not accept this “type” of image as there are many different types of images that can be displayed.\n\nThis might have to do with who or what ever created the original e-mail more then it has to do with your settings.

It either means that the mail id that you're sending the mail to does not exist or that the receiver's inbox is too full to accept any more mails. On a rare occassion, it could also mean that the server on the receiver side is down.\n\nAs for what you can do, check if the mail id to which you're sending the mail is correct or not. Most often, this is gonna solve the problem. If that's ok, and you doubt the servers, try resending the mail after a while and seeing the response.
