Bug description:
In a public forum (such as the mahara community forum), posts are readable when users are not logged in. However, any files attached to a post are only available when logged in.

As a result, you can only see images posted inline in a forum post when logged in. This also affects users receiving posts in e-mail, and through RSS feeds.

Arguably, if a user receives e-mail updates for forum posts, then this requires a separate resolution since not all groups are public groups. If a user is in a non-public group and receives e-mail alerts for a forum post with an inline image, then we should probably re-write the location of the image and include it as an attachment to the e-mail.
