Add default switch to show images in email
I would like to see a switch for the default action of the "show images" function.
In the preferences section, a switch could be added with 2 options:
- Always show images
- Ask (this would be the same as it is now).
With option 1, images in the email body would always be displayed.

I think the current setting impacts "online content".
I like not automatically accepting remote content, but would like the option to allow it for certain known senders, so a 'remember this sender' or similar. -

Is it possible to differentiate between images that are attached or in the body, vs signature images? People keep sending and replying to email with logo signatures and when I click to see attachments, its logo after logo after logo, ugh. It's like time out of my life I will never get back. And thank you. You're doing a great job.

Yes, we need to be able to set certain senders as safe to automatically load images from, whereas everyone else is blocked by default.

Agreed, this is very frustrating. I don't want to load all images by default, but there are many senders I trust and have to click "load" over and over. This seems like a pretty basic function.

Please allow user to state 'always show images from this sender', like Gmail, to make a sender address whitelist for image-loading. Just keep a hashset of image-display-authorized sender addresses to check against for showing images.
Example: I receive the Economist newsletter, and every single time I receive the newsletter, I have to manually click 'allow image loading'. I would like to just whitelist this address to auto-load images (both in the web app and the mobile app) but currently this is not possible. This is annoying and easy to fix.
Thanks again for everything. ProtonMail is on its way to becoming a best-practice provider for anyone remotely security-conscious.

Do you realise the privacy implcations of always allowing images to load? Once an image loads, it lets the sender know that you've opened the email, gives them your IP and location, and lots of other data.

Hush has this option. Although disabled images by default is a very good start as I almost never allow them.
"Some images are not displayed. Displaying these images could reveal your computer's IP address to the sender" <Display these images>
