Gif images not displayed in emails

[collansj]

Is there a bug in Sugarcrm 5.1.0a that does not allow the display gif images embedded in emails or is it a problem with my setup.
The gifs are displayed ok with thunderbird directly from the imap sever. However when using sugar's internal email viewer they are shown as a broken icon. I have tried both Firefox and IE6 with the same results .

System
Sugar version: 5.1.0a / Sugar DB version: 5.1.0 / Sugar flavor: CE
Mandriva Linux 2008.1
Apache version 2.2.8
MySQL version 5.0.51
PHP version 5.2.5
eAccelerator 0.9.5.2
email server is imap

I have narrow down what the problem is. It is a fault on my setup. The pointer for the gif images is pointing to the wrong folder. Instead of pointing to /var/www/html/sugar/cache/images it is pointing to /var/www/html/cache/images. Does anybody know where or how to change this setting, without reinstalling sugar from scratch.
Thanks

That line is ok in the module. So from the code it looks like I have some corruption of the $sugar_config site url. I have found that in config.php.

I have now solved the problem.

My first mistake was to use localhost as the host name and the second mistake was to use the server to test the functions of Sugarcrm.

When connecting to sugarcrm from other workstations everything worked except where sugarrm had put objects in to cache. Then the browsers were passed "localhost" as part of the address to the cache, which of cause could not be resolved. Changing the host name from localhost to it's network name solved the problem.

Thanks to DigiCRM for pointing me in the right direction
