attachments not attaching to emails

When I attach photos and some docs to an email they embed into the email rather than attach. I know that I can change to 'show as icon' and this does change but when the email is received by recipient the attachment is again embeded into the email and not an icon.

What am I doing wrong?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

You are doing nothing wrong, it's an issue with Mail. I suggest compressing the files first (select all the file you would like to attach, two finger click (like right click) and select "compress _ items") then attach the archive file it makes for you. The nice part about that is both mac and PC can open a .zip file.


This is the best way till Apple figures out how to solve the problem.
