If you’re asking about examples of the security risks, [here’s a starting point](http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/7489/why-would-someone-want-to-block-images-in-email).

Whether you’re talking about privacy (spammers know they have a good email address if you request the image from their server) or more serious security problems (I’m one of those lucky ones who got a worm from a jpeg 2000 image), yes, the risk is real.
