How to Embed Pictures in Outlook Express

Outlook Express is a desktop email client that simplifies and aggregates your email accounts all into one location. Some users find using Outlook Express easier than managing several different email accounts over multiple services. For the most part, Outlook Express replicates the features of an e-mail address's online counterpart, including picture options.

Things You'll Need

• Outlook Express

Instructions

1. Open Outlook Express.

2. Select "New" or "Compose" from the toolbar.

3. Find an image you want to embed in the email. If the image is online, right-click on it and select copy from the right-click menu. If the image is on your computer, select it, right-click on it and select copy from the right click menu.

4. Right-click in the body of the message in the Outlook Express "Compose" window and select "Paste" from the right-click menu. You can also drag and drop the image into the body of an email from your Web browser or file folder.
