Hello tony. Remote content refers to when someone sends you images pasted in to a message. By default, thunderbird blocks them just in case they are harmful. If you need to display them, for a sighted user perhaps, if you tab there is a show remote content button which you can click. This also gives you the option to permanently allow images to be displayed from a certain sender. This is not the same as email attachments by the way, this is when someone directly pastes an image in to a message for your perusal. All the best, Mo.
