When composing a message, the pasting of an html document with graphics has the graphics blocked so that I have to click on <options> in the lower right of the composition for each graphic.
How can this pasting of graphics be always enabled so I don't have to click <options> for every graphics in the email?
Thanks!

Attach the HTML document instead of pasting it into the body of the message.

Walt, yes, that is an alternative but not what will be suitable for my purposes.WaltS48 wrote:Attach the HTML document instead of pasting it into the body of the message.
It appears there may be no way to auto-enable the photos to appear in the pasted html document...quite surprising, if true!

Re: Auto enable pasting of graphic in email composition
The first thing to note is that this is possible.
I have my stuff set to Simple HTML under Email>Menu>View>message Body As > Simple HTML. However, that affects incoming Emails.
If I compose an Email I can paste in (like a copy and paste of this page) HTML stuff and any pictures in it show up fine. Quite what settings I have to do this is a mystery, but it's bound to be in the Preferences>Mail and Newsgroup>Composition stuff or similar.
Also check the about:config entries you have (just enter about:config in the browser addressbar) and search for image as I note I have no non default entries for that, apart from an animation one. You can tell default entries as they are not in bold.

I have looked and looked in the "Preferences>Mail and Newsgroup>Composition stuff or similar" and had no eurekas.
