Re: How to download Thunderbird portable to iPhone and ipad
I just noticed this in the Gmail settings and thought it might be of use? I don't know how TRUE the statement actually is though.
To help load images safely, images go through Google's image proxy servers and are transcoded before they're delivered.
This makes images safer because:
Senders can’t use image loading to get information like your IP address or location.
Senders can’t use the image to set or read cookies in your browser.
Gmail checks the images for known viruses or malware.
In some cases, senders may be able to know whether you've opened an email that has an image attached to a unique link. Gmail scans every message for suspicious content, and if Gmail considers a sender or message potentially suspicious, images won’t be shown and you’ll be asked whether you want to see the images.
