I just received what was intended to be two or three photos by email in jpeg format. They were sent as attachments to email. When opened as attachments although the pictures were appended to the bottom of the email, I found that each pictures was just one in a long string of photos, none of which were of my origin and i could advance through each image by uning the arrows at the bottom of the page.
Can anyone give me an idea as to what might have happened?
 
Hi and Welcome to PCReview! :)

It sounds like (By opening the attached image file via your email application); you're browsing your system's Temporary folder, using the Windows Photo and Fax Viewer... Perhaps.This would let you select each and every supported image file in this folder.

It's not too clear what is actually happening versus what you are expecting to happen.

Please can you provide more details.. ?
 
More on photos.

It seems to be a number of small images, that do not enlarge very well, and most are of a type that I have never seen before, such as scans or images of family documents (unrelated to me). Some seem to be pieces and parts of some other larger product. Some are photos of people unknown to me etc. If I search for any of the photos by name I am not able to have the search function find them.


I guess I feel that the person sending the original email is somehow or other catching all of a file rather than just the one photo and they are being sent as a small packet.

I think I will also take a long look at temp folders and see if I can find anything there.
 
Thanks, it would appear you are correct it was the temp folder from my machine, although I have no idea where some of the data came from. I am beginning to think I picked it up on a preloaded flash memory stick obtained at a convention.
Thanks again.
