Can you be sure the jpeg file isn't actually damaged? Try sending yourself an email with a jpeg attachment that you know is good
and see if your email client can open the attachment.
What program is selected to open the jpeg file type? To find this open windows explorer and open the tools menu and then open
folder options. Scroll down the list to find JPeg and select it ... click change to view the current setting for program. If the
program is internet explorer try repairing internet explorer.
If you still can't open that type of file we'll need to know what you are using for email to attempt to give you a solution for the
problem.
