Attachment: the problematic message - the comic strip is not displayed.

Comment 2

The comic strip shows up fine for me when I open the attachment.

Perhaps you're blocking images from the remote server where the comic strip is
hosted, or you were offline when you were reading the message (it pulls the
images from a remote Web site rather than attaching them to the message), or the
server with the images was down at the time.

I've noticed that if I go to the section where the image should have been
displayed, right click and select 'View Image' - I see the comic image fine in
the browser page.

Ok, it appears the default for images in Preferences-> Privacy & Security ->
Images was that 'Do not load remote images in Mail & Newsgroup messages' to be
checked. I guess I'd be happy if Mozilla at least has shown me that there was a
link or something that I did not load.
