FWIW, an image sent as an attachment can't be used for tracking you.
(Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that.)
Tracking is done when an HTML email uses tags that make a request for
some object (image, stylesheet, etc) when the email loads. If the
image is attached to the email, there's no request made, and no server
is notified that you opened the message.
