I have switched to Yahoo Classic Mail in order to be able to display graphics in emails when I want to.

Same problem with Linux 64-bit version:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0b7) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b7

BTW, this was not a problem with beta6.

Found another workaround: switch to the new Yahoo! Mail Beta. The "Show Images" button works correctly with 4.0b7. The URL to switch to Yahoo! Mail Beta is: http://features.mail.yahoo.com/
