Anybody know how to turn off Outlook Express 5.x showing images in HTML mail I get? I went to the Preferences dialogs and all I can see is "Show attached pictures in messages" in the "Display" tab, which isn't what I'm looking for; that turns on & off display of pictures sent as attachments.
Thr reason is: I've heard that some spammers set their servers to grab the domain & user info that the HTTP protocal sends when Outlook accessses an image link, thus confirming that you are a real address. I don't usually open things I think are obviously spam, but more & more spam seems to be getting through my ISP's filters, & sometimes I open things inadvertently (especially when I delete the messages I've read, & Outlook automatically jumps to the next one -- another strike against it!) I'd dump OE in a heartbeat, & use Mozilla or something, but I can't figure how to export & import my mail (& I have a lot now) already saved in OE format.
