How can i change the format .png when doing "paste" into a mail ?
You can't. You have to convert the file first, then paste the new
file. If you need a converter program try:
http://irfanview.com/
It's free and very good.
This is *not* a file .... it's just a copy/paste of an image, per
example, you press the "PrintScrn" button when what you want to
transfer is on screen.
You could probably first paste in IrfanView and then save in whatever
format you need. You could also paste in Paint and save in one of the
formats it supports.
I understand, but i did not want to put a file in attachement ... i
prefer just a copy/paste ... but as i have said soemwhere else:
I think that i have found the solurion ... i have to wait some days now,
because the recipient will be at work only at wednesday. I will tell you
the result.
The problem is that, no matter how you obtain the image, it traverses
the Internet as an attached file separate from the message. Only when
you compose the message and when the recipient's E-mail application
displays the message does the image file get combined with the message.
Thus, you need an image file when composing the message.
But 1. There is no file ...
2. When embedded in(per example, in the middle of the mail) the mail
there is no visible "file attachement" this is different when i click on
attach-browse-select a file; in this case the file is attached with the
mail(and not embedded in the mail text).
3. I know that the file or pseudo file is appended at the end of the
mail. Looking at the message source we see a multi-part message with the
message text/plain, the message text/html and the message image/png
... all those parts are composing the full message.
Well, in a plaintext mail there's no way you can have an image appear in
the middle. You may see it at the end, just like you may see a text
attachment at the end.
In an HTML email, you may see an image in the middle of the text if
there is an <img> tag in your HTML source. The src= attribute in that
tag may be a "relative URL" to an attachment, or the URL of a remote
image. In the latter case the image is not sent with the email, but
SeaMonkey will refuse to display it, unless *either* the mail is from
someone already klnown in your address book, and with "Allow remote
content" checked, *or* you click "Display remote content" after opening
the mail. This click only applies for one email, but there is a link to
create the address book entry if you want to always display remote
content from this sender.
In every case, the MIME type of the image (as set in the attachment
header fopr an image sent together with the mail, or as served by the
remote server for a remote image) must agree with the actual format of
the image. Renaming "foobar.png" to "foobar" without actually
translating the image binary content is liable to get the sending mailer
(for an attachment) or the remote HTTP server (for a remote image)
mistake it for something other than image/png, with the result that the
recipient's mailer probably won't be able to display it.
Best regards,
Tony.
