Thunderbird does not display images in email messages on my fedora machine?

Question

I have been having a problem with TB for quite some time, and I am getting rather tired of the problem.

Images in messages that are sent to me by users of windows are not displayed in TB. Rather, all I see are empty boxes where images are supposed to be.

This is not to say that every message I get from windows users containing images are treated this way by TB.

I am just saying that some individuals I know, who use windows, and send me email containing images are treated this way by TB.

Is there a setting that I need to set?

There really isn't enough information to reasonably come to a conclusion. A "windows user" doesn't define what mailer they are using and/or MTA. I recall there being issues with older versions of Outlook and the Exchange Server.

I would look at the structure of the emails and compare the working ones with the non-working ones.

If you can't see what may be causing the problem, you should consider saving the failing email file to a "eml" file and uploading it for others to examine.
