Most of the negative aspects of using and viewing HTML based/formatted e-mail
are security and privacy related. If you receive an HTML e-mail from a
trusted source you can still view it.
Click on the "External Message Information Bar" above the body/content of the
e-mail. You will see a message that says "Some pictures have been blocked to help
prevent the sender from identifying your computer. Click here to download pictures".
