Graphics are replaced with other graphics in my e-mails

Sending or receiving e-mail, graphics are replaced with other graphics, right before my eyes. A friend in Colorado has the same thing going on.

Also I type in an address of outgoing e-mail, it disappears, and I have to bring down the page to see it.

I love Thunderbird as my e-mail program, but these two things, I hope, can be fixed.

Thank you, Carol.

Could you please elucidate. What is replaced with what? The last mail you viewed?

I put a photo into the body of the e-mail. As I type down the page, the photo will be replaced by a graphic, say, of a smiley face. My friend in Colorado will send me a graphic, and when I get it, it will be replaced by another graphic or photo. It's really annoying.

Also the address I type into the address bar disappears, right after I type it. I have to pull the page down, then I see it.

I appreciate any help I can get here

Thanks again, Carol.

Ok I guess we are not dealing with government secrets here. So can you forward to me at unicorn dot consulting at gmail dot com on of these mails with the smiley face. Please forward as an attachment from the message menu or the drop down list beside the forward button. That way I will see exactly what is on your computer without any additions from the forward and with the original headers. Perhaps digging into the message source will reveal what is going on.

I had though it might have been the last image being dragged back. Last email had an image of the kids at the beach. This one is happy snaps of Colorado and the second mail displays the image from the first with the kids. Apparently that is not the case. A smiley face sounds more like some sort of security gate keeper. But only looking at the mail can show what is happening and then only if it is in the mail itself.
