"Load Content Directly" in apple mail for known email addresses

Currently I have email privacy turned on. I do want it turned on but would like content loaded directly for certain email addresses that I trust and get a large amount of email from.


How can I make "Load Content Directly" automatic for certain trusted email addresses?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.0

If I click "Load Content Directly" the images will load into the email, but I need to do that on every email. For this particular instance the blocked content is larger than the loaded content and I trust it so having a 'persist' or an 'always allow from this website' type checkbox was what I was hoping existed

It should be doing that already. The setting doesn't block loading like it used to do. It re-routes the request through a couple of independent relays to hide where the request originates. For some reason that I don't know, for some the relays do not resolve the http request for the image.

Since it doesn't work for any email, my assumption is it is something else interfering with the re-routing.

That entirely could be third-party anti-virus or other privacy software (e.g., VPN) running.

I tried to explain that yours isn't working correctly, along with many others. The notification at the top of the window gives you and indication that it is not working correctly and points to a problem in your network preferences.

There is not checkbox and you should not need one. There won't be a checkbox because it isn't necessary.

You have a problem with your system; I don't know what it is or how to fix it.
