Outlook – fetch remote content (images in html in email) before going offline for a while (airplane)
Hi,
Been coming to the techcommunity for a while now. This is my first post!
Product: Outlook 365 subscription.
I have a long flight coming up and the carrier has a poor record of internet connectivity. I would like to have my images which are linked in HTML code of the email to show up (pre-download).
Been searching and have found nothing relevant sans print every email to a pdf which is time consuming and probably will turn into a filing nightmare.
For context - imagine an email from your favorite store promoting a new product in the body of the email.
Example snippit from html source of email:
<a href="https://somewebsite.com/link.html" target="_blank" style="outline:none;"><img src="http://somewebsite.com/ImageIwantToSeeOnPlane.jpg" width="290" style="border-width:0; width:100%; max-width:290px; height:auto; display:block;"></a>
<div style="line-height:10px;" class="lhfix"> </div>
There must be some option hidden somewhere to cache the images for X time. What I discovered by testing was even after I open an email with an internet connection and save the page – once I close message and disconnect from the internet – reloading the same email comes up without those images even within several minutes!
It should also be noted that outlook 2016 is also available for my use.
Thanks,
Eddie
