It can though.

1) Your kid gets porn spam. Would you rather have the images show up
right away or only after asked so he or she can delete it without
seeing the images.

2) Web bugs allow e-mailers to track who read what message when. This
is normally done be embedding an image with a source like this:
http://www.flybynight.com/scripts/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&msgid=AD57

3) Background images as well as poorly chosen color schemes can make
it very hard to read text.
