When I send a photo it becomes embedded in the message. When recipient opens the message there is no attachment just the photo in the body of the email. is there a way to make the photo an attachment so it can be saved when opened with outlook or another email program?
iPhone 4S, iOS 6.1.3
My findings are that how the picture is sent is relatively simple. If you have a signature which is html (most likely created by copy and paste), the picture is embedded into the mail. If your signature is plain text (or you have no signature at all) the picture is attached.
How I tested...
I sent pictures while I have no signature. The picture is attached.
I type a signature manually. The picture and the signature are attached.
I create a signature by copy and paste (signature copied from another mail, or from notes) and now when I send a picture, it is inline aong with the html signature.
Just right click on the picture and select: View as Icon.
How do you right click on an Iphone?
My iPhone always sends pictures as icons
Took off any signature and it still embeds the picture. I am sure Apple have done this deliberately, it never was a problem and this is ruining my business now.
It's 2017 and this tip still works. It solved my issue.
I agree. This work. I would assume that apple would fix this issue after 3-4 years.
Microsofts inability to save embedded pictures is their problem. Complain at them.
Believe what you will.
Semantics. We all know what the OP means.
Send pictures as attachments and not embedded with iPhone
