On my MacBook some emails only display 'This message is from a mailing list' and will not display the content. If I look at the same message on my iPhone it is there. How can I get the MacBook to show the contents?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.1

Open mail app select Mail>Settings>Privacy disable one or all:

“Protect Mail Activity”

“Hide IP address”

“Block all remote content”


compare your results and report back.

Leroy, I think it has worked! At least I have downloaded some of the messages so thank you so much. This won't compromise my privacy or protection I hope?


I never had an issue feeling like my privacy was compromised before or after these features were added in Monterey and now Ventura Mail.app— all I have seen in these forums are complication like your original post...


I never have never turned any of these "bells & whistles" on and will not turn them on.


If it ain't broke don't fix it.
