I thought I had replied to this but apparently I have not. Shal was right, it was the en-dash character. That is a dash preceded by a space and followed by a space. But the image also failed to display when posted to Shal's test group even with the spaces before and after the dash deleted but the dash still there. (Technically creating a hyphen, I think?)

This all came about after a member included an image in a message they sent to one of my groups. The message file name included an en dash. They were very disappointed when the image failed to display in their message when posted. But the dash was the problem. Lesson being, DO NOT use dashes when naming image files.
