Well I bit the bullet and purchased ICONIZER.
Cost me $18.30 and it works fine.
How ridiculous is this though ... to have to pay a third party to add options that surely should be part of Mail anyway.

Thank you to all those who advised me re this subject.

Well, with that little program installed, I was able to send and receive a document as an icon on both a Windows and my Mac. Maybe the other person needs to have the program installed to change their Mail program as well.

This is interesting.

I just send an email with an image attachment using Entourage (instead of Mail).
I downloaded it using Mail and the image is embedded.

I then sent another one using Entourage.
I downloaded it using Entourage this time.
The image is still embedded.

So it appears that this is not restricted to just Mail.

So is this the result of a setting in OSX rather than in the email application ?
