You mean Iceape browser is not displaying images nor flash player videos 
at all? For this problem, I would take a look into this KB:

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load

I have never experienced such issues in Firefox but I have installed the 
latest version available from Mozilla :-?

Didier already sent you another KB for this problem but I would also 
review the raw code for the message, just to discard the MIME part it is 
bad encoded or has any problem.

But of course :-)

Any hmtl cabaple e-mail reader should be able to display embedded images 
when reading e-mails (for instance, Thunderbird -cousin of Iceape- it 
does) and I would also expect that Iceape is able to do it.
