Blocked email pictures.

[modeller]

I frequently receive emails where the pictures are blocked and the words: Windows Mail has blocked some pictures to stop someone identifying your computer. Now that is OK but sometimes I know the pictures are safe but I can't find an easy way to unblock them . I need something simple on the tool bar to swich the block on/off.
Any suggestions. I'm using Vista.

have you tried right clicking on the pictures?

[modeller]

Chuck . There aren't any pictures ! But I have tried right clicking where they shoud be and on the alert message. No good . !

I click the bar where the message is & the pictures appear.

same for me, but I don't use Vista. Usually there's just a note saying 'click here to see pictures'. What does happen if you just click on the bar?

[Robinia]

I've just found one I hadn't opened. Modeller are you only right clicking? It needs to be a left click (on mine), nothing happens with a right click.

I've RT and . LT clicked everything in sight . No good !
I've just received another email with a similar messge :
Windows Mail removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail : ATT00002622.jpg, etc.etc.

I know the source they are quite safe . I have only set a Medium level of security, so that shouldn't be the problem and in any case many pictures get through OK.

Isn't there a setting in Windows mail/Security (like Outlook Express) to tell it not to block images, etc in HTML mail?

Check this ... and Security Zone setup in browser.

Thanks Albags for that link, most useful.
I have also found that sometimes when I get the message saying attachments have been removed they are to be found following the main body of the email . This requires scrolling down miles before they start to appear without any text to explain what they relate to.
