If you were using a decent mail client (like Gnus or, uh, Gnus), you
could tell it not to render HTML emails entirely, or, alternatively,
flip it to one that renders HTML but not any embedded objects (like
IMG).

viz

(setq mm-discouraged-alternatives '("text/html") ; We *hates* HTML, we does
      mm-text-html-renderer 'w3m                 ; A decent web browser...
      mm-inline-text-html-with-w3m-keymap nil    ; ... but not its keybindings
      mm-inline-text-html-with-images nil)       ; This is the default anyway
