Does directory /home/desktop/jpg/MA stadium comp06/10/ exist and do you have read, write and execute permissions on it?

Hi catkin
Thanks for reply
Have checked the jpeg files that can not be sent
Permission details are identical for jpeg files that can be sent in email to the other jpeg that have been sent no problem

HOW ? Do I locate Temporary Directory?
Can use File manager Super mode
