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

[Crandon David]

John, both of your links came in fine for me. I can click on the  
links you sent and they take me to the web page, they are colored as  
well. But remember, they won't be colored or clickable on your end  
while you are composing them. That's normal.
