Not sure about every HTML being plain text but I do wish I had $20 for every overly image heavy email that has no meaning what so ever unless I do "show images.

Not sure about every HTML being plain text but I do wish I had $20 for every overly image heavy email that has no meaning what so ever unless I do "show images." Don't brands understand a fair number of ppl have their email client *not* display images by default?
- tomjen3 6y agoUnless you are using Mutt or similar I don't think anybody does not show images by default. I know thunderbird has no problem showing me images that are included in the email. Remote images are a crime, break the ability to search ofline or keep a record of ones conversation but they have one key advantage for brands which is to spy on you.
- slaymaker1907 6y agoMy corporate Outlook email client does not show images by default if the sender is external.
- tomjen3 6y agoEven if those images are embedded in the email?
- opan 6y agoRainloop web client used by Disroot and some others defaults to not showing images and needs you to click a button to display them. IIRC Protonmail is the same in its webmail. The only non-web client I've used much in recent years is aerc, which is basically covered under "mutt" in this case.
