Question

Can't see pictures from ipad on my pc-outlook express

Sep 6, 2012 5:44AM PDT

My wife subscribes to a yahoo list and when people post pictures from their iphones they don't show up at all on our pc (not even the file name or the picture). We use windows xp with OE6 and the lists come to her as emails. Any one know of a download or a possible solution. Thanks in advance

Pictures in OE should be shown as attachements. So you should be able to see the attachments and save them on your hard disk.

If you sent me a private mail (just click on my name and then in my profile page on "e-mail") I'll get your email address, so I can reply with my email address, so you can forward such a message to me so I can have a look at it.

Spoke to my wife and she clarified the problem. Pictures are not supposed to appear, only the urls. The urls from smartphones (and maybe ipads) don't show up at all. The urls from pcs do show up.

There are simple, free to use replacements that work better. Try Thunderbird next.
