Default I accidentally clicked on show images in one of my Gmails

And the PayPal logo showed in the eMail.
What o fo did they get/ leaked?, I suppose my IP. But also my "cell phone ID"?
Do I clean the phone?, the Gmail cache only?, which program for Android?
I got all my eBays/ Paypals in the Gmail app and don't want to make a new mistake !!

Do not worry about it.
I use the default email app in my ANDROID.

Yes but I clicked on display images in one of the eMails from PayPal.

I have power off the phone and then power on so nowI have a new IP.

What if the same happens in any other PayPal eMail of my Gmail accounts of the Gmail app?

Nothing will happen.
It's correct that e-mail apps send back BEACONS to the sender mail server, but I believe it won't trigger anything until that happens a lot of times repeatedly.

Just work as usual, or if you're still worry, just check the e-mail from the account browser.

But do I clean cookies in the smartphone?

Ah you're probably fine.

Mail servers that PayPal use 'probably' don't link up with your account. And Google these days sanitize images to limit abuse.

I'd still disable images going forward just to be extra safe.

Thank you, what I should not do is answer buyer's eBay messages through the Gmail app (I always do it in my PC and with different user accounts/ ips)

But man, it's exhausting if having many stealth accounts ...

Could it be dangerous?, I have a lot of gmails-ebays in the same app/ cell phone but I just use it to read messages and don't reply until I get home and use the PC and switch IPs ...

I don't see why it would be dangerous to answer via the Gmail app as long as images are disabled. It should be fine.

Yes, images disabled always. But what about answer messages of eBay buyers from the same Gmail App with multiple Gmail accounts (and so eBay accounts) in the same cell phone and same IP?
