Has anyone else encountered this problem?

In some cases Netscape 6 Mail is unable to properly 'Forward' email that
containing an image.  This occurs whenever the email originates in Outlook
Express 5 (and possibly other email agents as well).  In this case what is
forwarded is a condensed plain text followed by the HTML display without the
image visible.  (This occurs if 'Forwarded' in either HTML only mode, or
'Plain text and HTML' mode.)

This problem has a history with Netscape.  This also happens in Netscape
Communicator ver. 4.7 when forwarding from OE 5 when using the Stationery
facility (and probably with normal html email).  This was rectified in
version 4.75 by Netscape Communicator converting the HTML code to an
attachment.  Unfortunately, it appears that Netscape have taken a step
backwards with Netscape 6.

This is all bad news for all of us who wish for a reliable html email system
on the internet.
