How are you inserting it? If you're pasting into the body of an HTML or Rich
Text message, it will be in the body. Use the paperclip button if you want
to attach as a separate file.

The meathod of inserting is:
Insert button from tool bar,
Move down to picture and open,
Select from file, this takes me to My Picture,
select picture and insert.
In the past the picture was inserted as an attachment
rather then placing it in the body of email.
Would like to have picture as an attachment again.
Thanks . . .

Then set your message format to plain text.

You could also try dragging the picture from the folder to the Compose
window.
