Reader Helga Beuing would like to depersonalize the email she sends. She writes:
I have discovered that there is a small picture of myself in the upper right corner of every email I send. I have no clue how that started and would like to know how to eliminate that picture.
The source of that picture is Apple's Address Book application. When you open Address Book and choose your contact card (Card -> Go to My Card), in addition to your contact information you'll see any image you've assigned to your contact.
It's easy enough to remove that image. Just launch Address Book, select your card, and choose Card -> Clear Custom Image. The image will disappear and no longer appear in email messages you send.
