OT: How to attach an image -- Thanks

[joe at actionline.com]

Thanks, Ed.  I agree with your assessment of html email
and I use text email almost exclusively; but I was just
hoping to find a way to do what I described.

So, what is a "vcard" and how could I use it to achieve
the described objective?

Joe
