The problem seems to be the call to indent-rigidly in
notmuch-show-lazy-part. The image is actually inserted OK, but then
apparently deleted by indent-rigidly (probably because it looks like
whitespace).

I tried replacing indent-rigidly with a simplified version the and that
leaves the image inserted, but unfortunately doesn't indent it
properly. If you want to play with it, my half working patch is
attached.
