What program are you using for your e-mail? I have been using AOL now for  
twelve years. Professionals and my wife hate it, but I know the program and know 
 how to send crap. I believe in the keep it simple stupid theory of 
relativity.  :)

Thanks  but I am still looking for the magic button and think I found it - 
only it  does not work

If I go to "my pictures" (instead of the "photo studio"  location) a drop 
down menu come on the screen on the left.   One of  the items that can be clicked 
is: "e-mail this file"

that sounds good  so when I click on "e-mail this file" a window opens up 
that says "Windows can  re-size this file so it makes it easier and faster for 
the recipient to  receive"   That sounds even better so I click  "yes" on  its   
"do I want to do this" button. 

and an e-mail form page  show up  and it has the proper file attached and 
life looks  good.

I seem to have found the elusive simple way to send the picture  so it will 
automatically be resized for the receiver to get it sized properly  - but when 
I hit the "send" button, the e-mail won't go anywhere.

But  before I had hit the send button there was a  "NOTE"  on the e-mail  
form page that says:  "To protect computer viruses, e-mail programs may  prevent 
sending and receiving certain types of file attachments.  Check  your e-mail 
security services"

Do you think this is the problem?   And if so how and where do I go to see if 
my e-mail program may be blocking  the e-mail from being sent with its 
attachment?   

When I  send the attachment direct from Photo Studio without going through 
the drop  down menu that has the "e-mail this file" button, the e-mail does go 
through  but with the oversized picture.  Why would the e-mail go through if 
there  was an attachment blocker when I take the attachment from Photo Studio 
and not  go through when I take the same numbered attachment from "My Pictures" 
via the  "E-mail this file" button ?.  

Anything to do with one is a  Microsoft path and the other some other path 
like Yahoo? 

I am way out  of my league here but feel instinctively there is some simple 
way to send self  size adjusting attachments since when you go the drop down 
menu "e-mail this  file" route, it tells you it is going to automatically resize 
the attachment  for you.

MM or equivalent, where are  you?
