Is there an easy way to enlarge embedded images?

I often receive emails with screenshots embedded. They are almost always too small to read. I can save the images to files and then open them, but I'm hoping there's a way to open them directly without saving them first. Does such a function exist in Thunderbird?

So the sender has set the size of the image in pixels, so your stuck with what you already have.

hold the ctrl key and scroll your mouse wheel to zoom in and out of message bodies. Same as works in Firefox to zoom into web pages.

Gee, when I do that, text size increases and decreases, but embedded images remain the same size. Could I be doing something wrong? I'm holding the Ctrl key while scrolling up and down.

Thanks. How do you NOT set the size in pixels? I opened an email I'd sent with a couple of charts copied from Excel, and they couldn't be enlarged either.
