    I've recieved a JPG in the main body of a yahoo email that I cannot view as a picture - I can only see it as code. Does anyone know how I would go about viewing it?

    Thanks

    Hi

    What type of code? was it a file location as in c:\pictures\mypicture.jpg ( < example )

    or very random code ie. ksadiauwyequeqpweqywa;sfd619832498oa

    Most likely the other party needs to attach it to the email opposed to dragging and droping it into the body of the email, some email services need you to attach or insert over just drag n droping.

    Hi Halo, thanks for the reply.

    This is actually from an old email and the sender no longer has the original, unfortunately. It's not a file location but it does look rather random to me! If it helps, here's the first few lines of what it's showing:
