question about pics in email

[fleeper99]

My wife sent me 5 pics in an email. The pictures did not show up in the body of the email. I have to click to save each one to the phone. Is there a more efficient way to accomplish this? Also, if I receive an MS document, it does not automatically open in word or excel when I click it in the email. is this possible?

Thanks.

Microsoft does this due to security concerns. With exploits, they can be attached to any kind of file, especially pictures or Macros/scripts run in office documents.

I have yet to see a way of changing this on the phone at all. Maybe if the phone was unlocked, there mright be a setting, but i would have to say that there probably isn't. I only say that because i have not used a carrier unlocked device yet, so i am not sure if there is or not.
