[X4U] Why do some images not go through on Apple Mail?

[Crandon David]

Hmm...not sure why you have to go through all that hassle. I'm using  
10.4.11, and Mail Version 2.1.3 (753.1/753), however, I've been able  
to just type or copy/paste since 10.3.

Here's a link I typed:

http://www.cnn.com

did it come through OK?
