I am having problems in sending mail to windows computers in that when I write an email and paste images into the email, the receiver sees squares where the images were with a red X in the box. Can anyone advise what changes I have to do to my setting so that the images in my emails will be seen. Thanks in advance.

Edit menu --> Attachments --> Always send e-mail attachments Windows-compatible.

Thanks, but they're not attachments, they are images in a word document where I cut and paste the entire document (including the images) into a new mail window so that people who can't receive attachments can view the entire email along with the images in one pane.

How would people who can't receive attachments open a word document in their mail?

Just write a regular e-mail in Mail. You can drag in pictures inline within the message text.

He's copying the contents of a Word doc into the email, not attaching the Word doc as an attachment.

But your comment is still on the money: If they can't receive attachments, they can't see the images you pasted into your email (which would be sent as attachments).
