We don't use techies around here-- well a couple of people are, but the
vast majority are simple users.

The standard Email thing that OO does is to open your email program and
add the file as an attachment which as you say is not what you want it
to do.

There are two ways you can do it:

1. Produce it as an html file. I think most html email programs will
open an html file in-line... your graphics still show up as attachments
but the program will show them in with the text... might be worth
experimenting with to find out how to get the right results.

2. If I were producing something as an E-zine in which layout is
important I would save it as a pdf which OO does quite well.
