Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-2.8.1.1-3.fc6 How reproducible: I am using evolution with evolution-connector to get mail from an OWA server. My Internet access is exclusively through a proxy (I have a local ntlmaps proxy that contacts the actual proxy, which most Linux applications can't talk to.) All images appear in as red x-es if the messages reside in local folders. Occasionally, I notice an image that correctly downloads if the message is residing on the Exchange Server. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up proxies in System>Preferences>Network Proxy. For good measure set up a global environment variable (/etc/profile.d/proxy.sh). For good measure, install gconf-editor to verify that the settings are known to Gnome. 2. Make sure that Email Properties (HTML mail) has "Always download images from the Internet" checked. 3. Write a rule to move a newsletter in HTML to a local directory. 4. Try to read the message from the local directory. Actual results: The status bar indicates attempts to download the message, but all images are replaced by red x-es. Expected results: Successful downloading of the images. Additional info: I had the same problem in FC5, but never reported it. (I switched to Evolution very late in the cycle -- I had been using Outlook under Crossover Office before, as my organization had no OWA at the time.)
Reassigning to gtkhtml3.

Closing here since this has already been moved upstream.
