I can see straight away the first two images; I can also see the second two
*if* gnus was opened during connection, without doing `T' or `C-u T',
whereas I can't see them if gnus is opened off connection even if I do
`T' or `C-u T'. (In my .gnus.el the `mm-w3m-safe-url-regexp' variable 
is set to 'nil'.)
I've done a certain nuber of tests now, and comparing my gnus
with MS Outlook I can say:

1) some html images are viewed as well in Outlook as in Gnus;
2) some appear within gnus without background colour;
3) some appear "broken into pieces" within gnus;
4) some don't appear at all within gnus, and in their place there is:
   '[cid]' and remains so even if I do 't', 'T' or 'C-u T'.

Do you guys from emacs-w3m mailing list think we can be content with this?

I'll be sending Katsumi types 1), 2) 3) and 4).

Thanks indeed,
