Outlook Image Download [EXCLUSIVE] Settings

By default, Outlook for Mac doesn't automatically download pictures or photos in email messages if the images are stored on the Internet. This practice helps to protect your privacy because downloading an Internet picture can alert the sender that your email address is active and that you received the message. However, you can turn off this preference or choose to download Internet pictures only from your saved contacts.

When I "Insert Picture" a JPEG in Outlook 2010 it automatically resizes the image and, I think, recompresses it too. I realise this would be useful for photographs or for people who try to email 1MB BMPs but I would like to email around an image at the original pixel size without recompression. Is there a way to turn this off, or better still choose settings for each image insert?

I found this page in the Office help. It's for Word, PowerPoint and Excel not Outlook but points you at File, Options, Advanced, Image Settings. There's no equivalent section in Outlook. I know Outlook uses Word as its editor so I've looked at Word's settings but there isn't an 'original size' here: there's only 'turn off image recompression' and pick target DPI from 96, 150, 220. I guess Office is finding a DPI value in the JPEG file and scaling it up or down to match this setting. I can't find an equivalent option in Outlook's options menu but there's so many settings and pop-up dialogs I may have missed something.

Thanks! I realise I can probably achieve this by editing the image metadata in PhotoShop elements or similar but there ought to be a way without editing the file? This is new behaviour in Outlook 2010; 2007 didn't do this.

When you use the Insert / Picture feature to insert an inline image, Outlook (and other MS apps such as Word and Excel) will look at the DPI setting in the image file. If your picture has a DPI setting of anything other than 96, Outlook will resize (i.e., scale and resample) your image (permanently) to 96 DPI upon insertion and there isn't much you can do about it after the fact.

The way to avoid this problem altogether is to open the image in a good image editor, set the DPI value to 96 DPI, and then save the image. If you do not resample the image when you do this, a good image editor will in no way affect the actual image content (i.e., it will remain pixel for pixel identical). After you do this, when you insert the image into an Outlook e-mail, Outlook will show it (and send it) in its original size, unless you manually resize / scale it. This is how you avoid the gratuitous "Outlook scaling, blurring, and destroying your pristine image," issue.

Update: The 96 dpi mentioned in my answer above is not fixed. In Windows, you can choose to set the DPI value to other settings using for example, Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Display in Windows 7. This change affects the DPI value that MS Office products use.

If your text size is set to something other than "Smaller" (i.e., 100% / 96 DPI), you will have to use a DPI setting other than 96 DPI, depending on the text scaling factor you have set. This is especially true on laptops where people tend to use larger text settings, because their screens are much smaller (often set this way right out of the factory). For example, if you are using Medium size text (i.e., 125% of the 96 DPI value), your images will have to have their DPI setting changed to 120 in order not to get rescaled/resampled when inserted into Outlook.

The solution in this case is to paste from Excel into MS Paint, then COPY the selection from Paint (no need to select again, since it's already selected after the paste), and paste into Outlook. Passing the image through MS Paint somehow resolves this problem, at least under these specific circumstances.

I was able to set this using your command in Terminal. It works, but you must do it only while Outlook is quit. If you're testing while Outlook is running, then it'll override the plist and revert the change as it's saving its settings.

We've been making an HTML Email with a background image in the header and some text over it. We got into some trouble to make it happen but looks like I managed to make it look in most readers though some Outlook ones didn't display the image as expected but that could be acceptable.

What I found interesting is that there doesn't seem to be any way at all to display a background image on Hotmail/Outlook.com/MSN reader. I've been using litmus.com to verify and preview and a code analysis gives me this info:

So while I can read some answers around Stackoverflow saying you can make it work on Hotmail using the full "background" property as Hotmail has turned into outlook.com I have the feeling such thing isn't supported anymore?

We bought a template to do this and are trying to modify it, the template included a background image but on testing it on different readers looks like not even the default template does it right :( (In fact I've had to be fixing it around and now looks acceptable in most readers but Outlook.com)

Well, after some more research I found that not any single company sending me a campaign email was using background images (including companies like Amazon, the BBC, or many others with plenty of cash and incredible frontenders) which gave me a good guess that using background images on HTML Emails may not be a good approach.

I'm not sure if there is any way to make them work in Hotmail/MSN Live/Outlook.com as Litmus says it's not supported atm (March 2015) but we decided to change the design and make it work without background images.

I can add an image to the email (the commented out MyHTML part does that) but I can't seem to get a background image to load in, I am modifying code I found online somewhere but my HTML skills are pretty close to nill.

However, despite this, dynamic images should still be rendering within the emails. From my experience, images not be appear automatically within your Outlook mail clients if you have the Don't download pictures automatically in HTML e-mail messages or RSS items setting enabled. You can learn more about this setting and how to disable it for your Outlook client from the Block or unblock automatic picture downloads in email messages Microsoft Help Article.

In additional, this can also occur when your emails are landing in the spam or junk folder. This is in order to protect the recipients from any malicious content if the inbox provider thinks the sender or message is suspicious. Similarly this behavior of images not appearing within Outlook, can also extend to Gmail, Yahoo, and other inbox providers and would just be a matter of adjusting the image settings in your inbox client. You can find instructions on how to adjust these settings for some of the major inbox providers in the resources below:

After getting bombarded with mails I just discovered that the auto-loading of images is the most probable cause. So disappointed in Microsoft. Will probably start looking for a more security concerned mail provider as the the current mail address is burned anyway.

There are a few different things you can include in your signature, such as your name, job title, company name, website, and so on. You can also include an image or logo. However, it's important to keep your signature relatively simple and concise. Otherwise, it will be too distracting to the reader.

You have 2 main options for adding an image in Outlook. The first (more complicated and less rewarding) option is to access your Outlook app signature editor and upload an image from your computer- learn how.

Other than the default configuration issues, there could be some reasons why pictures in your email are not displayed. It can be some email program settings, incompatible file formats, and the way images are attached to the email.

Though blocking pictures makes computers more secure, it is not desirable to block images from trusted sources. This is why we have listed some common configurational changes that can help users access restricted emails in Outlook. It includes:

If you are doing the above step while previewing the message, the image will be saved automatically and displayed when you open the message next time. But with an open message, you have to save the message if you want it to be displayed when you open the message next time.

Outlook comes with an integrated feature to block web content. This feature ensures your system safety by blocking web bugs. You may have noticed that many advertisements you receive via emails anonymously have blocked images. You can access these blocked images through simple steps; all you have to do is right-click on any picture place holder and select the Download Pictures option. Moreover, you can add members or domains to the safe senders list by simply following these given instructions.

Sometimes even if the user has made all the required configurational changes, Outlook still restricts external content like images. The most prominent reasons behind these situations are a couple of factors like invalid Temp folder path and corruption in Temporary Internet File Folder.

Disabling the firewall temporarily will not compromise the security of your computer, as long as it is re-enabled once the images have loaded. If you are struggling with this issue, try disabling your firewall and see if it resolves the problem.
