Images & trusted senders

In the app: Message › Display images

Many emails load pictures from the internet. Loading them tells the sender that you opened the message (and when, and roughly where), so goCORA blocks them by default and shows grey placeholders instead.

Showing images in a message

  1. Open the message and tap Display images (top-right, under the sender).
  2. goCORA downloads the images and shows them in the message.
  3. goCORA then asks “Always show images from sender?”
    • Yes — images from this sender are shown automatically in future.
    • No — only this message will keep showing its images.

Screens are illustrated with the Android layout; Windows and iOS show the same screens with native styling. Red numbers on a picture match the numbered list or the numbers in the caption for that picture.
