I have taken the liberty of copying Roniel-D's answer from another thread.
His answer possibly explains why WLM users are experiencing the "stripping" of images from the body of emails.
He says, in part, "Email can be formatted to include the images in-line or as attachments".
So here is my question:
When I encounter these "stripping" issues, is there a simple way for me to positively determine if the image is included within the email as an attachment to be displayed within the message, or the image is linked to a web site? This would be helpful.

Additional information:
Email can be formatted to include the images in-line or as attachments. That means part of what determines how the email is displayed is exactly what format the sender used to compose their email.
HTML and Rich Text formatted email both allow images to be embedded within the actual message. Naturally, there are different ways to do this; for example the image can be included within the email as an attachment to be displayed within the message, or
the image can be linked to from a web site. Both formats also allow images to simply be included as regular attachments without any relationship to the message body.
"...part of what determines how the email is displayed is exactly what format the sender used to compose their email.
Plain text email, on the other hand, only allows for images as attachments.
