I have installed Mozilla on lots of computers but ONE of them, a W98SE OS
machine has the peculiar problem of not being able to display the IMAGES in a
forwarded email message.  It does display the text correctly.  All other images
(*.jpg, *.gif, etc.) in forwarded messages do display OK.  This with Mozilla
1.7a (and previous 1.6 released.)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just have someone forward a message and have it come in as a
<forwardedmessage.eml>
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The text of the message shows up,  but not the photo images.

Expected Results:  
show the pictures.

Yo write that *.jpg and *.gif images display OK: 
In which format are the images that do NOT display?

I just looked at one such email and it had two *.gif images and one *.jpg.  I
could display both images fine.   I use a Win2000 machine with Moz 1.6 and I
noticed that:  a( when the messge comes in and I have it set to display
attachments INLINE,  I can see the images just fine.  But if I then double click
on the attachment,  the text displays but not the images.  I will go and setup
my neighbor's machine to display attachments INLINE and see if that makes a
difference.

This bug report is a little vague.  It would be best if a sample email that 
exhibits the problem could be attached to this bug.

Part of the description makes this sound like bug 227720, but that bug doesn't 
say anything about the forwarded mails having attachments of their own.

See also bug 144276.

Joe Mehaffey, do you have a sample message exhibiting this bug?  Preferably the 
original, not the forwarded version.

Joe Mehaffey, feel free to reopen if you can supply a sample message that 
exhibits the problem.
