I see.. Changing it to "manual or explicity allowed rules" changes it from red to gray. A slight improvement. Still, the way thunderbird renders is better. Just a placeholder box without any crap in it.

Why don't you need better look for something blocked as potential spam? I don't need this, my strong IMHO. If you trust to sender you don't need to block images and look them fully, if you not trust them - you just need to know that they aren't loading and not shows to you.
@George It's not a question of trust. It's a question of readability. I don't want to look at an email full or red or gray squares. They are distracting from the rest of the content. Should the content interest me, then I can tell the software to download the actual images.
What's wrong with just empty boxes as place holders as seen from the thunderbird pic?
I'd even be happy if these place holders did not exist. I don't have a pic, but such emails were rendered differently in 8.xx.
