Dear Charles Wolrich of Forbes, Thank you very much for putting Linux in the spotlight in a series of articles. I wanted to point out a misunderstanding in the article "Checking E-mail in Linux" within the following paragraph.
http://www.forbes.com/2002/07/18/0718tentech.html "This is the only one of the three e-mail clients that deals with attachments well. We could open the Word document as an attachment in a text editor, preview our picture and save it to disk. It does, however, have problems with embedded images, which we weren't able to get it to display." Evolution purposefully does not display HTML embedded images for your own protection. Often many HTML spam that people receive contains uniquely identifiable names within the IMG SRC tags. This means that if you view the e-mail, they are able to track you and know that your e-mail address is valid, thus you receive even more spam.
