Public bug reported:

Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
1. go to Edit-->Preferences-->Mail Preferences-->HTML Mail
2. select "Load images in mail from contacts"
3. go to Contacts
4. create a new address book (mine is called "Lists")
5. add the address of someone that sends html mail with images (like mailings at mail.cnn.com) to the new address book.
6! open an email from that address. most images will not be displayed.

restarting evolution does not fix the problem. interestingly, images
that have previously been cached do show up (like from a similar email),
but not new images, so the behavior is different from 'do not show
images'.

this was working in recent previous builds, i believe.
