outlook.live.com not showing external images in messages
I agree with everyone. It is a Microsoft issue. If I forward the emails to Yahoo or to Gmail, everything works fine and I can see all of the images.
Thing is - we can complain about this forever. I would rather do something productive. Does Microsoft read our posts? If not, how do we communicate our concern to people at Microsoft so they can fix it?
same problem here. from another thread there is a work-around that is better than getting gmail: enable conversations and the images will show. worked for me.
I don't like conversation view, but rather tolerate it over no images which is horrible.
- Dilli2021Sep 21, 2021Copper ContributorHello! Your idea works - I just tried it. I don't like Conversation View either, but I agree - at least we can now see the images. Thank you!
- upset_hotmail_userSep 21, 2021Copper ContributorWoks, but again... why we should suffer? Why those Apple, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo can change what works whet we like? Why?
- itsnicole84Sep 23, 2021Copper ContributorDitto. Turned on Conversations and it's fixed. Hate Conversations view, ugh.

martinversteegThanks so much. That did the trick. (enabling conversation view in settings) It was so irritating.

This worked for me as well. Thank you for sharing,

Another thing they broke is creating a new subfolder in the left pane. Create a subfolder, give it a name and it shows up blank. You need to rename it and the name will stick.
They must have some new, unexperienced, programmer working on Outlook Online.
Don't they test anything before releasing it? Where is the quality control? - philvanwiltSep 23, 2021Copper Contributor
martinversteeg Thanks, going to outlook.live's settings and choosing group by conversations in the Layout tab let the images load. You're better than MS's support staff! 😉
- JaneElizabethSep 23, 2021Copper ContributorThat worked. It will do for now. Thanks!
