I often include photographs in the mail. If I just 'drop' them then they
display overfilling the screen. If I attach them then my friend then has
to double click to call up another program which is not easy for him.
I appreciate that the size of the photo display can be reduced via the
'reply' icon but this is very clumsy and contrasts to the Apple Mail
program where small / medium/ large options are prominent.
Does anyone have a workaround or an easy way of including photos that do
not overfill the recipient's screen. I am anxious to maintain meaningful
contact with him for as long as possible in a way that is that the
recipient simply has just to open the mail?

If you're using Windows, you can select the photos in Windows Explorer, right-click > Send To > Mail Recipient. It gives options to resize the photos first, but attaches them rather than inserting inline so not quite what you want... Other operating systems may have a similar feature.

Another option - it may be possible to set your friend's mail client to display attached images inline (View > Display Attachments Inline on SeaMonkey). He may need help finding the appropriate option, but it should only need to be done once.

Mark.
