Hi Jim,

Can you go to Message | Forward as attachment and send me one of those
messages with the eml attachment and I'll take a look at the code?

In the meantime, he can save the attached eml file and use Message | Forward
as attachment and then it should work.

cheers,

steve

Steve,

I replied to your message with a TXT attachment of the raw message data.

Thanks, Jim.

It looks like there is some bad formatting of the original message, which is
preventing the images being included. Seems Outlook is the culprit.
