Image Attachments in Mac Mail
Why does Mail sometimes change my attachments to embedded images? I'm trying to send some JPEGs of about 3.5 MBs each, but I have received a complaint that each one has been converted to a 640 x 293 pixel thumbnail inserted as pictures. How do I ensure my recipient receives the full-size images? Michael McMurtrey Carrollton, TX Greed never sleeps. Ignorance never wakes up.

Is there anything to worry about vefore trying to fire it up? I assume you mean one of the ADC displays that get power from the video card. Nothing special -- if the power supply was marginal enough for an ADC display to push it over the edge, there's nothing you could realistically have done to avoid its failure. However, ADC doesn't draw a great deal, which is why Apple ended up abandoning it. -- personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- Coffee.

Ken Yes, which version of mail? I am using 2.1.3 under 10.4 and there is an option for image size in the bottom right corner of the compose window once you add a picture. Make sure that is set to actual size. I took a quick look and I did not see where to set the default image size in Mail's preferences. The 640 x 293 is pretty close to the medium. so it may be sizing things down to that.

Besides what has already been suggested, it might be Mail considers those images too big. You could try compressing them (one by one, or in a single folder/file), and attach them as ZIP files.

Mail shouldn't mess with ZIP attachments. Every version of Mail I've used has had some means of setting the size of an attachment. I believe Mail tries to be 'smart' and limit sizes to a 'manageable range' by default IIRC, since 10.4-ish, there's been a small dropdown menu at the top of the body when an attached image is present, allowing you to choose small, medium, large and 'original size'. This applies to all attachments. That said there has been seven versions of Mail to date, always specify the version and/or OS X version when you post a question, because the actual answer may vary depending on the version. -- Bruce Johnson Wherever you go, there you are.
