[DM-MUG] Help Sending JPG's to AOL

[Chris Rinehart]

Hello
In the Mail program supplied with OS X when you attach something there 
is a check box at the bottom of the selection window that says Send 
Windows friendly attachments. AOL has a hard time with inlinge graphics 
from any platform. Express files are completely unreadable. My boss 
uses AOL on a PC so I have a lot of experience with this. Chris

Someday you will find that there is a difference between wanting and 
having.
