nothing should happen when you are composing the message. However, if you added a hyperlink to the image in your message correctly, it will show up on the receiver end of your e-mail. just send an email like this to yourself and see that it works.

to add a link to an image, select the image in the mail composition window and go to mail menu->edit->link->add.

yes, that's it. as i said you won't actually see any difference when you do this in the message composition window but the link will be added. when you send the message, the e-mail receiver will be able to click on the image and go to the linked address.

It works for me.

hmm, strange. as i said it works for me. Just tried it out to make sure. maybe something is getting messed up during the delivery. Open the sent message in the sent mailbox. does the hyperlink work there?

BTW, what version of Mail are you using? Mine is 3.3. I've done this before and it also worked in 3.1 and 3.2

sorry, I don't know why this doesn't work for you. you seem to be doing it correctly so it should just work.

some things to try (none might help).

1. try this from a different user account.
2. reinstall Mail from optional installs on the leopard DVD.
3. reinstall Safari update.

after doing 2 or 3 you'll have to reinstall 10.5.3 combo update too to bring your system up to date.
