blocked pictures

There is no symbol in the right corner. There is only a red x in the left
corner of the body of the message. There is no attachments.

I have the same problem, but I don't even get a red x in a box - the jpg
image i copied and pasted within the body of an e-mail vanished when it got
to another of my computers. The originating pc uses Outlook 2007 and Vista;
the receiving one uses Windows Mail and Windows Live and Vista. I attached
the image file and it vanished, then I pasted it to a word doc and pasted
that to the e-mail. What this means is I have no way to send jpg images to
the pc.

The clue is that the originating PC uses Outlook.
Outlook has a proprietary attachment format called RTF. Other email
programs can't decipher that format. When sending from Outlook,
make sure you select plain text (best) or HTML format.
