Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Mail app lists emails received on my Mac, in the browser box, but no longer shows the text or images when an email is selected - just a blank - only since installing OS Monterey.
I still receive all emails, including text and images, on my iPhone iOS 15.0.2.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.13
Thanks for the suggestions, but I just stumbled upon a solution to the problem. The privacy rules had been increased on installing Monterey and so none of my mails could be read unless I pressed on a new button (one that I had missed before) to download the content of each mail. I've disabled the privacy mode and now things are back to normal.

Yes, the image you show of the privacy settings is the one I opted out of. Since unchecking it everything is working well. I did note that my "Block All Remote Content" was not checked - the same as shown above - but that, in itself, was not enough to return the missing content of my mails.
I don't know how much this will affect my mail being hacked, but it was the only thing that allowed the mails to be read, so it was the preferred way to go.

It has nothing to do with hacking your email.
If a spammer sends you an email with remotely linked content, they will know you are a valid email address when you load the content.
Hasn't worked for me - still getting blank emails; since rebuild mailbox was hit, all other emails are blank too ... next step is deleting the iCloud account from one computer (I have have a MacBook Pro and an iMac with the same issue) and reinstating ...
#CynicG : Just to be clear, this is Privacy window in Mail and mine looks like this (below). I also hit "Rebuild" in the Mailbox menu a hundred times in trying to find my mails, so maybe that helped too.
Then I noticed an extra button in Mail that allowed me to read each mail, pressing this after selecting each mail : two clicks to read each mail. I didn't like this, so removed the tick/check in the box above. Oh, and then I restarted Mail. Hope this helps.
Deselecting the Privacy setting "Protect Mail Activity" resolved the issue for me. Interestingly it was only occurring on some email threads and the pictures were all displaying but not text content was showing. Had to rebuild the inbox after deselecting it to resolve for prior emails.
Thats exactly what I found as well. It seems like a very confusing decision to require two clicks for each seperate email. Not to mention for me it would not even let me open the mail application at first after installing the new OS as apparently I "didn't have enough space on my home folder" even though I had 80GB of free space. This update to me at least feels like it has not been polished enough at even close to the same degree as the previous updates.

That problem has plagued Mail since Catalina. Seems to be rather rare, and I haven’t figured out what causes it. I think it may be tied to local Time Machine snapshots, but deleting them to “make room” may have been coincidental.
Oh I didn’t even think of that, that might’ve helped me. Instead I have just gone back to Big Sur for probably another month or few as everything worked fine. Because i did manage to actually get into my mail eventually because i just removed my email accounts and then re enabled them once i managed to open the mail app, however what that did instead was cause multiple problems regarding the downloading of my previous emails so like i said i’ve just gone back to Big Sur
As suggested in another post, I removed my Sophos Home antivirus and allowed full disk access (both begrudgingly) to Mail. I then restarted the computer, rebuilt the mailbox. This seemed to fix the problem, but A) what a pain in the @$$ and B) since WHEN do we have to lower the security of our computer JUST to receive HTML mail? It's ridiculous!
Are you referring to below image
You may need to Rebuild the mailbox.
Select the inbox of one account and choose Rebuild from the Mailbox menu.
An aside to specific issue - iOS is now updated to iOS 15.1
Which privacy mode do you mean? Block Remote Content has always been there. I don't see anything else that would prevent a message from loading.
Mail app since installing OS Monterey
