Answer 1

Such mails are called HTML based mails wherein the content is text+images...



Due to abuse, all Mail Providers have blocked showing Images within HTML-based Mails, unless explicitly asked too..



When you open the mail to read, you have option like: "Display External Images"

Click that & it would show you images...



Unless that.. the images would be replaced with blank box with X mark!



And even if, still you cant see images...then the mail you received or the newsletter....the images embedded in the mail may have been moved or deleted from the server where they are actually sourced from!

Generally happens when you read a old mail...
