Are you going to tell me you didn't see this ad in your MUA? Then, it doesn´t render HTML!
In fact yes I will tell you that. My MUA renders HTML (if you tell it to render it globally or if you tell it exokicitly for a specific mail). but does not load external references. So if I get a html only mail I can read it rendered but any pictures (ads, web bugs, whatever) are not loaded at all. The Client? Look at my headers. You can enable loading external references in the config though but it's disabled by default.
Since the ignomious "web bug" is only a simple plain vainilla ad contained in all messages sent from Rediffmail, a web based mail service.
Yes but to be useful it has to be an url referring to a server under control of the sender. Something my KMail won't load even when redenring a html mail with pictures and and other stuff in it. As long as pictures are embedded in the mail they are displayed when html is redenred but not if they are external URLs.
