Q: Mail resizes Large attachments to Medium.

This problem has come and gone over the years.  I thought El Capitan had fixed it, but apparently not.

 

When I attach and resize a photo, the Large size is exactly the same as the Medium.  I can restore it to fullsize, and Small still works, but the middle two are identical and I can't make the pic Large sized (which I'd guess is 1000 pixels wide, maybe?).  It stays at the Medium setting, about 600 pixels wide.  I've tried checking and unchecking the "remember settings" block in Mail Preferences; that didn't work.  I can't find the Mail preferences to trash them (in the library; standard cure-all for Mac issues).  And I can't figure it out!  My fullsize photos are typically 2048 pixels on the long side, about 1-2 meg for a full photo.  Thanks for whatever help you can offer. 

Mac OS X (10.7.2)
