Hi, I cant see any setting to allow pictures to open automatically in my emails, for example, when i receive an email from ebay, i have to select 'download picture' to open them manually. Is there a setting for them to open with the email?
MS does that in all their email apps (Outlook, outlook.com, W8, WP) as a security measure. Also saves data if you don't care about said email content.
I don't really find this all that annoying, really all it takes is one tap on the screen to bring them up.
How hard is it to tap the screen to open guys?
Well obviously alfonz is not a power user like the rest of us...
Also, whilst on the subject of user options, when i tap to make a telephone call, why would i want the 'history' page come up first??, my preference is for the keypad to first appear and i have no choice but to make another tap to select the keypad...........not the end of the world, i know, but why no user option in the settings?
I believe the thought behind this is that you call some of the same people/family on a regular basis. Example, I call home in the evenings when I'm on the night shift to tell my 6yr old goodnight. I will do this 3 or 4 nights in a row. For me, seeing the history is more convenient. Unless you're using your phone for a lot of business use, where you're calling different customers/clients from call to call, you too probably will see the benefit of the default history view.
Agreed, it's a non issue for me.... How hard is it to tap the screen to open guys?
Outlook doesn't download images for security reasons. When you receive a spam mail once the images are downloaded it verifies to the spamming server that your email is an active email account. And I agree, there should be options to open the phone app to the page that you want.
Same logic applies to live tiles? What if everything on our phones took one extra simple, quick little tap?
How are you guys clicking to download images .. I don't see this option at all .. Its kind of a bummer because I get a lot of emails that require pushing a button in the image but I don't even see a link where the image link should be
