Normal kmail generated email msg, inserting a jpeg or png in the middle of whats basically a text msg doesn't work, only gets about 6 blank squares in the src text, and which do not make it thru the malling list in the returning echo from the listserver, whereas an attached .jpeg does. But then there is no way to caption the individual image. > If you're talking about email, I think you need to send a HTML message > but the details of what goes in the HTML are beyond me.

It should have an assigned Excedrin headache number. :) But in a text msg, isn't that what a mime boundary trigger and its following mime command is supposed to do??? Thats not nearly so ugly, and its a long time, very well defined protocol... Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
