I have a problem with the “Reading Pane” of Windows Live Mail not showing the graphics (images) embedded in the body of an email (all emails) and not providing me with a choice to display them by clicking on the option “Show images” at the top of the email. See image below.

This option is displayed when I open the email in a new window, but in the past, I was also provided this option when viewing emails in the “Reading Pane”. See image below.

I have provided further details to assist in resolving this issue:

 

1. Windows Live Mail 2012 - Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3528.0331)

2. Email Account is “Telstra Mail”

3. OS – Windows 7

4. I have checked that Read all messages in plain text isn't selected on the Read tab.

by pressing Ctrl-Shift-O for Options.

 

Any assistance would be appreciated.
