I'm talking about an html message with inline graphics, not a message with links to graphics on a remote server. If you "click on the 'html icon' on the left side attachment list" in such a case, besides the text, you get nothing but little "red crosses". If you receive a message in which "inline" and "remote" graphics (or text) are combined, you won't be able to see the "total" correct message in TB!. It's not often that one receives such a message, but it happens, and those can be "genuine" (I mean written/sent without "evil" intentions) messages. Some people seem to specialise in such a "style"... -- Best Wishes, Mark using The Bat!

If I am working with HTML, I want a web page out of it not a PDF. I would use a publisher type package for that.

That's exactly the same, i do, if i get such Mails (which i _want_ to read...). But they want it _inside_ The_Bat! - maybe even as an Internet-Explorer Plugin - whicht probably is the easiest Way, because the Control APIs are already here for Plugin-Support.
