"Download Pictures" problem

Looking for assistance with Entourage.

I continually am forced to manually select the "download pictures" choice
each time I receive an email (using the latest version of Entourage). It is
frustrating and I've attempted to use the preferences panel several times to
prevent this hurdle with incoming email and it doesn't appear to have any
effect.

Has anyone else run into this issue and come up with a solution?

Thanks, Bob

A new security feature in Entourage 2004 blocks the display of pictures (and
other linked mail content) hosted on remote sites. Images can be loaded for
individual messages by clicking on the ŒDownload Pictures¹ link in the
yellow message status bar. This was a huge feature request from users that
found the all embracing ŒAll Pictures¹ or ŒNo Pictures¹ too limiting.

There is a setting in the security section of the preferences to
automatically download pictures from recipients who are in your address
book. That should suffice for most users. If you really want to download all
images from all sources, you can put ".com", ".net", ".org" etc to your list
of safe domains in the Junk Mail Protection dialog. Then, images from all
untrustworthy sources will be downloaded.
