Edited photos reverting when attached to email

After editing photos on Mac Sonoma mainly to lighten, they revert to the original dark mode when attached to an email, causing the recipients to have problems either reading or printing out if need be. How can I rectify this please ?

iMac 27″, macOS 14.6

Just tried and the edited image is sent from inside Photos.


Make sure to use APFS or MacOS Extended volume to store the Photos library. Maybe some 3rd party virus app is interfering or some "cleaner" app has corrupted the system.


If that doesn't do it, use "Photos > File > Export > Export photo" to the Desktop and verify it is the edited version before sending.
