   Look at the setting   
      
    Edit -> Preferences -> Privacy and Security -> Images   
      
       [x]  Do not load remote images in Mail & Newsgroup messages   
      
      
   Be warned that turning off this setting can confirm your email   
   address to spammers.  Some spam comes with images that your   
   email app has to fetch from a web server ('remote' images).   
   If you view the image, the web server logs that you have   
   received and read the spam and the spammer knows that you are   
   a good target to send spam to (because spam to you is not stopped   
   by spam filters).
