I am using Outlook 2002 (XP) and everything was fine until today when I
find that I cannot get HTML images in email (displays placeholders).
When I click on Format at the top, the entire menu is grayed out except
for "Send pictures from the Internet" When I try Outlook Express, I get
the same placeholders, but I also get a message on top telling me that
blocking has occurred and I can click on that message to get the HTML
content.
Of course, if I use Mozilla Thunderbird, there are none of these
problems!

Problem is solved! I found that IE had somehow been set NOT to Show
Pictures but to Show image download placeholders. When I reset the
settings, Outlook worked again. I noticed that there were some other
queries that indicated similar problems and perhaps this would solve
theirs.
