[X Newbies] Picture Stamp on email messages?

[Barry]

Birgit,

Do you have a picture set in your account preferences, and are you 
using Apple Mail? I ask because your picture does not show up.

My understanding was that Mail displayed the picture you have set in 
your account prefs on your local system whenever one of your email 
messages appear in Apple Mail, but the picture is only transmitted to 
others when a .mac account is active and the email passes through the 
.mac email server. Can someone confirm this? I am prepared to stand 
corrected if I have the wrong understanding.
