when "Do not load remote images in Mail & Newsgroup messages" is set, viewing 
mail with images and "full HTML mode" can cause images to dissapear:

They don't fully disappear... They simply appear as an invisible block -- no
border and no 'broken image' icon.

I noticed this because I was looking for the link that was bound to an image --
and the image wasn't were I expected it (right justified instead of left).

I'll include two sample attachments.

a broken-image icon properly appears if you view the email in "simple HTML" mode.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.select   preferences/ privacy&security / images/ Do not load remote images in
Mail & Newsgroup messages
2.find an email with downloaded images
3.try to find where the image should be

Actual Results:  
end up with an invisible block where the image would otherwise be.

Expected Results:  
broken-image icon. and/or border around image placeholder block.

Attachment: simple sample email with downloaded image

Note that the ALT text doesn't show up, either.

You may have to copy the attached email into a mail folder to view the problem.

(Also note: Mozilla will, by default, include images inline. I just edited the
raw file to produce the wanted message type )

forget the comment :
DO not load .. = you block images and this should not display a broken Icon
since it's not broken.

Even so, the Alt text should still be displayed.
   (SOMETHING visible should be showing up here)
