Also, find your "embedded" folder (might be in C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora\Embedded if you set up for a single user) and see if the gif files are in there. If they are there, can you see them with Windows Xp explorer?

Well sorry for the delay in replying, yes i can see all gif files in embedded folder but there were some gif files which were not recognized as gif files, on right click properties it would display the file type as "file" and not gif.
I tried to rename those few files by adding a gif extension to it, it would then recognize it as gif file but wont display the same in eudora.
After upgrading eudora to 7.1 version i was able to see those gif files at the bottom of the message body but not where it should have been displayed, thats center.
I then tried to send a new mail with gif images, that would display the way it should but the existing mails wont display gif files correctly may be any new messages with gif images would be ok, i have still not recd any complains from the user yet but if you guys have any suggestions i shall keep it for future reference.
Thanks.

Finally i had the chance to check for new mails on our CFO's machine and all emails with gif images were visible without any problem. So i assume the upgrade from 6.2 to 7.1 worked for me.
Thanks
