Sending JPEG MAC attachments to an AOL account for a PC ?

[Gary Zemitis]

A MAC friend of mine with MacOS 9 --Outlook Express 5.0.6, has many JPEG
graphics from his digital camera that he would like to send to many friends.
Unfortunately, most of them have a PCs signed up via AOL which gives them an
integrated conglomerate of internet applications (browser, email, messenger,
etc, etc). I own a PC with Outlook Express. When my MAC friend sends an
attached JPEG to my PC Outlook... I can receive it perfectly. BUT, when he
sends it those who use the AOL email software or whatever, they are not able
to open the JPEG attachment, not because they don't have a IMAGE viewer but
they don't know how to open the attachments. They indicated it says they
received a 111 kb JPG file, but a little red box appears which says it
cannot be viewed.

Any suggestions would be VERY MUCH welcomed... THANK YOU.

What if the AOL recipients save the attachment to disk?
