What does hotmail do with your images when you email them? I had some one email some pictures to me that were going to be used for creating a printed picture. They used their hotmail account and I received an incredible grainy looking picture although the size and dpi were still OK.

They then sent me the same images using their yahoo account and it was incredible to see the difference of the images that I received. From being grainy they were clear and focused.

I am not sure what Hotmail do with the images that are sent, but they are obviously trying to preserve their bandwidth and are stripping the images that they allow to be sent over the internet. This could be one more of those corporate problems of bad customer service that Microsoft is delivering these days.
