Re: Images do not display in Email

Thanks Bill; the problem still persists. JPG or GIF show up with
BOXES with large text that I can click on (hand) and get to a web
site. HTML show up in BOXES with a big red bold "X".

So the JPG and GIF appear to be linked to outside servers, at least
they take me there, whereas the HTML images are an enigma with the big
red bold "X".

I selected "Work Offline" in the Entourage pulldown. i.e. Entourage
only connects to the server to download mail when I click on send/
receive. That seems to work fine.

At the recommendation of Dianne (MVP) I also recently ran the
MacOSX10.4.10 combo update; then executed a "Remove Office" and re-
installed it from my Office 2004 CD & ran Office Update. That didnt
solve the problem. I'm still receiving email with boxes where there
should be html, JPEG and gif images. Although, when friends send me
JPEG photos as attachements to their emails, I get them fine. They
show up as a picture in the email, as well as an attachement.

thanks in advance for any help and hints on how to fix this issue....

Since my first use of Entourage several months ago I have had a
problem with a bold red "X" showing in "boxes" throughout incoming
emails where there should be an image (probably html). The same email
in Outlook Express or Outlook email in a Windows environment displays
the images imbedded in the email with no problem.

My environment is as follows: HW= Macbook; Intel core Duo, 4Mb Cache,
2GB memory. SW= Mac OS X 10.4.10 with Entourage 2004 for Mac Version
11.3.6. All my Entourage Security Preference setting boxes are
checked. And all email senders are in my Entourage contact list. I
work only in remote mode in Entourage and occasionaly do a send/
receive to receive emails.

Any ideas on how to get those images imbedded in emails to display in
Entourage? Or at least get an option message to download them? thanks
for any help.

Hi Pierre!

What format are the image files? JPG? GIF? Other?

Are the images indeed coming with the E-mail messages themselves or are
they being linked to outside servers?

Can you elaborate what you mean by "I work only in remote mode in
Entourage"? I think I may know what you're referring to but I'd like to
make sure.
