Is there any way to prevent embedded pictures from displaying without
my approval? I have "Automatically download pictures from my Address
Book contacts" unchecked (I know it's not quite the same thing). What
else do I need to do?

If the pictures are indeed embedded into the message then unfortunately
not. Selecting the message displays the message if you have the Preview
pane turned on. Turn off the Preview pane (View menu --> Preview Pane)
and then you can select and delete messages without them displaying.

Hope this helps! bill
