Windows 7 picture problem

My wife has new laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium. I transferred all the pictures from her old laptop via Windows easy transfer to the new one. No problem with that. The problem is that she is unable to email short videos and pictures. I first noticed this when she would simply foward an email she had received to me that had pics, but all I could see was the big empty box with the little red arrow where a picture was suppose to be. She is using Windows Live Mail, and no special software for her pics. Please help us. Her pictures are her best friend.

I feel it's just a matter of settings, but I can not figure it out.

Thanks,
Bill

Yes. that is what I get when she emails me pictures forwarded.

When she tries to send video's or pics from her pictures, they will not go. She gets a warning that the email had to break up the videos in smaller parts, and sent me to a place to set that. The problem is that the maximum setting (16,000 KB) still does not work.

Thanks for your help. Like I said, I don't know where to start.

I checked these settings, and sent s short video. It says it is sending it in 5 parts. What is this part stuff? Never heard of it. It says sending part one of five. But..after a minute or so, it gave me this messaage.

Subject 'pics goula girls wiing 005.AVI [1/5]'
Server Error: 552
Server Response: 552 5.2.3 DATA size exceeds maximum permitted
Server: 'smtp.comcast.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC6D
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No

It never did this with XP and Outlook before.


Then I successfully sent a single picture and for the first time, I could open it on the receiving end. So..we are making progress here. Just need to figure out the video thing.

Thanks,
Bill

Not sure where I change the port #. I tried to sedn 8 pics, and it would not, then I tried 4, and it sent them.

What about the options in WLM in send/HTML settings , should the box , Allow 8 bit characters in headings be checked, and also, where it says encode text, should it be "quoted printable", "none", or "Base 64", or does any of this matter?
Thanks,
Bill

What sould the numbers be? Right now they are outgoing 25 and incoming 995
