Trying To Do Away With 'Protecting Privacy From Pictures'

[cruiznsquaw]

When viewing the message box, pictures do not appear. Just above the
message box there is a yellow horizontal strip with 'red circle/slash'
To protect your privacy, some pictures in this message were not
downloaded.

How do we make Entourage dowwnload the images without clicking on the
'Download pictures' link that is after the warning message as stated
above? Going through the Mactopia KB & Entourage Heelp in the Menu Bar,
we read that there is a checkbox which disables this 'protection'
feature and the pictures download automatically. This same checkbox is
supposed to be in Tools>Accounts and within the account information,
click the Option Tab. The checkbox is supposed to be at the bottom of
the dialog box as thee Help info provides, but there is no related
checkbox that exists to remove this 'privacy protection'.

Help please.

A new security feature in Entourage 2004 blocks the display of pictures (and
other linked mail content) hosted on remote sites. Images can be loaded for
individual messages by clicking on the ŒDownload Pictures¹ link in the
yellow message status bar. This was a huge feature request from users that
found the all embracing ŒAll Pictures¹ or ŒNo Pictures¹ too limiting.

There is a setting in the security section of the preferences to
automatically download pictures from recipients who are in your address
book. That should suffice for most users. If you really want to download all
images from all sources, you can put ".com", ".net", ".org" etc to your list
of safe domains in the Junk Mail Protection dialog. Then, images from all
untrustworthy sources will be downloaded.

I have also noticed that since the 11.2.3 update, the worst update I
have ever experienced, that when an eMail is inaccurately sent to Junk
Mail, if I don't click on the "show pictures" link before I click on
the "Not Junk" button, that when the mail goes to the inbox folder,
there is no link to download pictures and I am stuck. And putting .org,
..com, .whatever in the safe domains window doesn't work, since 11.2.3
killed that feature also. And I have the security option selected and
that doesn't work either.

If it would work, there should be an option to turn that feature off.
Granted it may have been a big request, but all or nothing is a little
drastic. Oh wait a minute, it's nothing. That's even more restrictive.
