The problem here it's this:

Spammer   A   sends  a  spam-mail  to  you  with  the  from  email  as
[EMAIL PROTECTED]  In  your  TB! you have this address in the
whitelist of downloading images.

The  mail has a transparent image from a php file with a serial number
linked in a database with your mail.

Now  the  spammer  knows  you  email account it's readed, and you hace
read the spam mail.

The perfect option will be a button or something to load the images of
the current mail. And this should be made manually every time.
