Png file


 

One of my group members sends messages to our group and each of her messages has two .png files attached to it. Those files, which are small in size, show up in our "emailed photos" album as a light blue solid square. Although they are very small size so they are not taking up a lot of our photo space, they are annoying in the group of emailed photos, so I keep removing them. The member is not actively attaching anything to her messages, and she is not tech savvy, so she has no idea what is adding those files. She sends her messages from Windows 10 Mail. Does anyone have any idea what these are and how she can eliminate them? When I try to open those attached files, each one opens in my Windows photo viewer as just a straight line, one slightly bigger than the other.

?That's one of the 'features' of that program.? Fixing it is on the TODO list,

If it's what I think it is, it's a reply separator that Windows 10 Mail decided would be preferable instead of a simple <HR> tag. Original posts won't have it, but if the [offending] user replies to any other post, it will. Worse, if anyone subsequently replies to that message without purging the embedded image, the disease will continue to spread.?

My experience is that the file is 148 bytes in size.?It is very annoying, and I've pretty much given up on deleting them manually. My personal preference is that we establish some related group settings to strip embedded graphics entirely. As Duane stated, a remedy of some kind is on the "to do" list.??

Regards,
Bruce?

Thanks, Duane and Bruce, for explaining about those png files. Now I can tell my member it's not any kind of error that she is personally doing. Fortunately, in my group of several hundred people, she is the only one replying with Windows 10 Mail so far.
