I have no idea what an eml file is. .eml does not appear on any of my
file types either in Graphite or Photoshop.   According to my
computer I am just sending a jpg that was edited in PhotoShop. Same
thing I have done a hundred times before.  I have a message posted to
AshlarVellum asking for advice. I will send a different test image
to  you privately to see if it is just something about that
particular drawing.  Jerry


What email program are you using Jerry? Check the settings to make sure
you are sending out plain text messages.
Does anybody know what a .eml file is?

P,

   *.eml are saved Outlook Express e-mail message files.  When you save
an e-mail message from the Outlook Express program, it creates *.eml
files.  They can be opened with Outlook Express (duh), but I'm sure that
there are "viewers" available that will allow you to see them.
