Thunderbird doesn't display feed images


Hiya,

I recently installed enigmail, and it made some changes to my thunderbird settings. I have since uninstalled it, but can't get images to display in my RSS feeds again.

For example, the xkcd feed, at http://xkcd.com/rss.xml, has images embedded in it, but I only see the contents of the alt-text when I load the article in thunderbird.

If I right-click on the folder, select the feed, click 'edit', I have "Show the article summary..." unticked.
I have View > Display Attachments Inline checked.
If I select View > Feed Message Body As > Web Page, it loads up the actual XKCD webpage, not the HTML of the feed (as expected)
If I select View > Feed Message Body As > Summary, then whether I choose "Original HTML", "Plain text" or "Simple HTML", I get the alt text.

I'm using Thunderbird 12.0

What have I missed?

Thanks in advance!
