Whilst they’re easy to view when you receive them, keeping them in an email is not the most logical way to organise them. Here’s how you can save them to your computer so you can manage them in software like Picasa.

Outlook Express

If you want to put the photos into a new folder of their own – read and perform “New Folder” first.

Open the email with one or more photos attached.

Right-click one of the attachments and click “Save All”

Click the “Browse” button

Go to the top of the list, find “My Documents” expand it by clicking the plus next to it.

Then find “My Pictures” and also expand it.

Choose a folder within “My Pictures” that you’d like to save the folders by clicking on it, then clicking “Ok”

If you want to create a new folder, see below. Afterwards, restart the entire process.


That’s it! Your photos are saved on the computer now.

New Folder

If you want to save them to a new folder, click “Start > My Documents” or find another way to get to My Documents. Then open “My Pictures”

Click “File > New > Folder” and enter the name of the new folder.

Restart the tutorial from the beginning.
