I really wish to see the pictures in my e-mails, even when of line.

I am using Microsoft Outlook form the Professional Edition 2003. I used
to use Outlook Express. I download my E-Mails and open them and can
read the contents while online. If I go off line, I can no longer view
pictures within the document. I just get little red X's in theplace of
the pictures. I pay per minute to be online so wish to see the pictures
off line as I used to with Outlook Express. What settings have I got
wrong?

I have tried the following and it doesn't solve the problem:

How to turn off the "Don't download pictures or other content
automatically in HTML e-mail" option

You can turn off the Don't download pictures or other content
automatically in HTML e-mail option. When you turn off this option, no
content from the Internet in HTML e-mail messages is blocked. When this
option is off, the download behavior of Outlook 2003 is like the inline
content download behavior of earlier versions of Microsoft Outlook.

To turn off the Don't download pictures or other content
automatically in HTML e-mail option, follow these steps:

1. Start Outlook.

2. On the Tools menu, click Options.

3. Click the Security tab, and then click Change Automatic Download
Settings.

4. In the Automatic Picture Download Settings dialog box, click to
clear the Don't download pictures or other content automatically in
HTML e-mail check box.

5. Click OK two times.

Note If you clear the Don't download pictures or other content
automatically in HTML e-mail check box, the Permit downloads in e-mail
messages from senders and to recipients defined in the Safe Senders and
Safe Recipients Lists used by the Junk E-mail filter check box and the
Permit downloads from Web sites in this security zone: Trusted Zone
check box are left in their current state. However, the Permit
downloads in e-mail messages from senders and to recipients defined in
the Safe Senders and Safe Recipients Lists used by the Junk E-mail
filter check box and the Permit downloads from Web sites in this
security zone: Trusted Zone check box appear dimmed and do not respond
to mouse clicks and keyboard access.

If the sender puts a *link* to the image in their message, you can only
see it when you are online. The e-mail program has to go to the server
to retrieve that image. If you are offline, you cannot reach the server
to yank the file from it. Tell the sender to embed the image (Insert or
copy/paste) rather than link to it.
