How to enable mail to load all remote images?

For example, this email:

images.jpg


Preferences, viewing, is checked to "Display remote images in HTML messages".
 
If you click on "click here" it will open in Safari. There is also an arrow that will appear when the cursor is over the "click here" that will then show a preview of the ads, but there is no option to just load the images automatically in the message body. Like there used to be. And like there is on the iPad- all images are loaded automatically.
 
I found this on Apple's site. Best I can see from there is it won't display images if it thinks the email is Junk.

If it's marked as Junk try removing the flag to see if that helps.

They are not listed as junk. I have selected to view remote images.
 
Having the same problem after upgrading to Lion.

Images will NOT show up in most emails. They are not flagged as junk. There is no option to display images. Preferences are set to display remote images in HTML emails. Please help. Thanks in advance.
 
view images from remote html

Found out I had the viewing set to the wrong setting.

I had the checkbox checked for "Display remote images".

Then I switched the "Show header detail" from default to ALL.

That did the trick

I do not see what changing the header detail would do to solve this issue. It makes no difference in my case.
