I, for one, am very glad that TB won't display external images, and it's the main reason why I was prepared to pay for TB rather than use one of the numerous freebie MUAs. External images can be used for malevolent purposes. For example, as web beacons to track your usage, or for spammers to verify your e-mail address.
