Mail image display problem

Hello everyone!

I am writing to you because I have not found anything interesting on the web to solve the problem. I use Apple's Mail to manage all my accounts but lately I've been getting this error: "Network preferences prevent me from uploading content privately." And every time I have to click on the "Upload content directly" button to view the images of the email correctly. I checked in the preferences but couldn't find anything about it.


The network configuration remained unchanged. I don't understand how to solve the problem. Attached I send the screenshot to better understand the problem.


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.4
