276604 - Image display turned off - but an e-mail message has defeated this

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

I have image display turned off, but I received an e-mail today that *did*
display an image. I have examined the HTML source for this message. It uses an
odd "mailbox-message://" protocol in the SRC attribute for the image. This seems
suspicious, but I don't know enough about Thunderbird to even guess at what the
effect is.

The raw HTML of the mail message is in the attachment I will be adding presently.

The only image I see in that message is:
<IMG SRC="mailbox-message://[e-mail]/Inbox#65057077?
header=saveas&part=1.2&filename=Cbkvi.GIF" border="0" ALT="">

You didn't include the entire source of the email message in your attachment, so 
I can't verify this, but: That src attribute appears to be pointing to an 
attachment to the message, rather than to a remote URL.  The option you refer to 
as "image display turned off" is actually called "block loading of remote 
images".

If you really don't want to see images at all, use
