The key word in that option is EXTERNAL. It means that the e-mail has a
link to an image on a web server. It does not apply to images included
in the e-mail itself.

I have turned on 'block display of images and other external content in
html email'. However I noticed that inline display of images from mail
in the inbox is only actually suppressed if I select 'read all messages
in plain text'. How is this meant to work?
I'm using OE6 with XP SP2.
Thanks if you can clarify this (unconfuse me).
