246492 - Make "block loading of images" an account-specific setting

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 228138

(Thunderbird :: Preferences, enhancement)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: 

It would be nice if the preference located in "privacy" entitled "block images 
from loading" could be set on an individual account basis.

The reasoning for this is that I use Thunderbird as a mail client for several 
IMAP accounts, one of which is a spam quarantine mailbox.  Naturally, I don't 
want to download images from the spam quarantine mailbox, but I would like to 
be able to see images in e-mail on some of the other accounts.

This also affects the ForumZilla add-in.  With image blocking enabled, 
ForumZilla will not display any in-line images on blog pages.  Unfortunate, 
but it would be nice if I could disable image blocking there individually.

Rightclick on an image on a page and select "Block all images from ....."

This is for Thunderbird, not Mozilla web browser or Firefox... I'm talking about
when viewing emails.

Ah, per folder would be more useful... you can mark this as a dupe or invalid...
