Actually in large corporate enviroments it could make a lot sense. In 
many places users have standardized network drives where the images 
could be placed and then referred to from email.

F.ex. if one sends an internal newsletter to 2500 users and places 250 
kilobytes of images in the network drive instead of embedding them to 
the message could save about 625 megabytes of wasted space on the mail 
server.

And I *do* think that the best way around this would be placing 
newsletters like that in the intranet etc, but sadly world isn't 
perfect. ;)
