After installing Windows XP Service Pack 2
(SP2) and downloading emails into Outlook Express, you will find that no images
are downloaded with the email. Only the placeholders are shown. This is a
security feature that can prevent the person sending the email (usually a
company) from knowing that you have opened the mail. To change this option so
that images are downloaded with all your mail do the following.
1/ Launch Outlook Express
2/ On the main Toolbar click the
Tools option
3/ From the drop down menu that appears
click Options
4/ The Options Window will now open
5/ Click the Security tab
6/ On the Security tab screen look for the
section marked 'Download images'
7/ Now uncheck the 'Block images
and other external content in HTML email'
8/ Finally click Apply followed by
OK to exit
9/ The next time you download your email
the images should all be in place
