Yes, and as I said, that is an email setting, not a browser setting. As SeaMonkey has both email and browser, the Preferences are all in the same place. Now, if you examine the separate Firefox and Thunderbird, you will find that same setting only in Thunderbird. It's in Thunderbird's about:config as: mailnews.message_display.disable_remote_image boolean The setting does not exist in the browser, so there is no control for what you would see at a web page. -- -bts -This space for rent, but the price is high _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
