The cid: in my picture, corresponds to this in the .eml .
So it looks like this is a JPG.

Content-Type: image/png; name="bellen_algemeen-newstyle.jpg"

I ran the image through a base64 decoder, and the file is actually
a .png file. Colorspace is RGB. The Content-Type declaration has
it right, but the file extension does not. Re-coded by an
intermediary ?

Compared to my previous picture, this is with the image
plopped into place (photoshopped).

And here's an example of (an older edition) of the news letter which
shows up
fine!

OK, that one is filled with .gif images.

So the email tool is being asked to display
different kinds of images in these cases.

It probably isn't something described here, because
the behavior is distinguishing between PNG (with .jpg
extension) and GIF.

There is a suggestion here, but it would be for
adding a PNG association to Vista. Does Windows 7
already have this ?

Those files can be opened with Notepad, once you extract them.

pngasso_vista.reg

Compare the registry entries in there, versus the ones
you can see in Regedit.

There is also a PNG file here, same deal, extension is
..reg and can be opened in Notepad. Compare to what is
there currently.
