I assume you meant "display" not "delivery". No setting in Thunderbird displays whatever image Bob sent. And it isn't displayed when I look at the message with Gmail's web interface. And it isn't in the mailing list archive. In all those cases, there is only a tiny little 'OBJ' icon.

On investigation, that icon () is a Unicode character, 0xefbfbc in UTF-8 format.

So I'm guessing that only Scott saw the actual image, as a direct recipient of the message. Mailman converted it to U+FFFC.
