Though I'm not fun of downloading images within The Bat maybe this
functionality could be implemented in a certain way that could make it as safe
as possible.

I suggest to take the approach a certain program (that is in beta now, sorry I
cannot disclose much details) is using

Downloading images from html content is by default disabled. Then there is the
following options

* The sender matches a white list
* The sender matches an address book entry
* Always disabled (by default this is checked)
* Always enabled
* Ask user what to do

If "Ask user what to do" is checked then the first time an external image is
in an html mail a dialog should popup like the attached.

The "Don't ask again" should be enabled only if "never download" or "always
download" is selected.
