[X Newbies] Picture Stamp on email messages?

[Norman Cohen]

Here's the link for the information from Applecare to enable your user 
picture in .mac for viewing in Apple Mail.

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=153286

These pictures are stored in your computer at 
	~/Library/Caches/com.apple.addressservices/Photos/<username>@mac.com
where <username> is replaced with each .mac user from whom you've 
received an e-mail while reading mail with Mail.app. If the user photo 
has been changed but it hasn't updated, you can delete the file for 
that user at the location listed above (see 
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42987 for details).

HTH,

Norm
