I put in my .gnus the line:
(setq mm-w3m-safe-url-regexp nil)
but STILL can't view html images with gnus.
I didn't think it was so difficult!

Within Emacs, when I did 'M-x info RET d m Emacs-w3m RET'
I got the output: [No match].

I put in my .gnus the lines you reported,
then in the summary buffer I did C-u C-i
and in the echo area the following message appeared:

Symbol's function definition is void: w3m-safe-toggle-inline-images

. I'm almost desperate! Do you have any other suggestion?
Maybe problems with the configuration? The installation seemed to be o.k.
in the end.

Thanks,
