Entourage 2004 doesn't display pictures in the messages

[Yann]

Does any body know why Entourage 2004 does not display some pictures in
the messages ?
I have this "error message" :
"To protect your privacy, some pictures in this message were not
downloaded."
And there is a "Download pictures" link right after the message.
When clicking on it, the pictures are displayed.

- There is no filter activated,
- The messages are not in the junk categories,
- In Entourage preference, the "show attached pictures and moving in
messages" is check,
- The "display complex HTML in messages" in the preferences is checked.

There is nothing about this in the Entourage 2004 help, nor in the online
help !

Does anybody know how to remove this "option" and get all the pictures
automatically in all messages ?

THX

Add ".com", ".net", ".org" ... to you list of safe domains in the Junk Mail
Protection dialog.

Funny, because that's one of the things I really like about E 2004. One of
the typical spammer scams is to send a graphic that really just validates
your email address as you download it. That's why the default is not to
download pictures.

I believe it will download pictures from any address in your address book,
which is so fine with me.

Right, as long as you have that option enabled. The option is located in
Entourage -> Preferences under Mail & News Preferences > Security. It¹s the
last option on that screen.
