 They should set v2.12 at disposal for download somewhere on TB!

 That's a great idea. Somewhere I have my original installation file
 for v2.12 (my registration code for that version is somewhere as
 well), and I may well try to go vintage one of these days. I know
 someone who is still very happy using v1.49! :)

That's the attitude! Go girl!

I'm assuming you mean pictures embedded within your message...

FWIW, I've found that embedding images in email is rather
inconsistent, especially between Thunderbird and TheBat!
(my two main email clients.)  Those two often refuse to
correctly display messages sent by the other one, though
both programs can send the same messages to a GMail user
who can see them both fine using Google's web mail interface.

Basically, until there's a standard for how to handle HTML
mail, especially with embedded images, we users will just
be forced to suffer differing interpretations of the RFCs
that cover those things.  After all, RFC /does/ stand for
(R)equest (F)or (C)omments.  If there is an actual STD
document for this, then it must allow too much interpretation
and have too many optional things to enforce interoperability.

Sorry for the rant, I've been complaining about this issue
to RIT Labs for a couple years and have always been told that
TB is right and the others are wrong.  Not in so many
words, but that's the essence of all the replies I've ever
received on the subject.

Yes. All I get are placeholders, and embedded pictures are *never* visible in 
TB for me.
Was hoping I was just missing a setting somewhere.

Images can be associated with a message in several ways:

  1 - A message may have attachments of images or other documents,

  2 - An HTML message can have place holders that refer to images that
  are included with the message,

  3 - An HTML message may have place holders that refer to images at some
  External Web site.

In case # 1, the attachments should be available using tabs at the bottom
of the message window and/or icons in a sidebar.

In case # 2, TB should display the images correctly in line.

In case # 3, there is a security problem. The act of fetching the images
from the external site can reveal too much information about you. Thus, TB
has been reluctant to automatically fetch such images. Previously the only
way to see those images was to display the message in the browser. Now TB
will fetch the images if you give it permission. The Image Download Manager
may be accessed by clicking the Yellow Question Mark at the right of the
message header (To, From, Subject).

Unfortunately, at this point I can give you little more help since the
Download manager seems to have a lot of capabilities, but they are not very
obvious and I can find ABSOLUTELY NO DOCUMENTATION about it.

So, does anybody on this list have a pointer to any documention about the
Image Download Manager?
