Prevent external images from being loaded in AJAX-Gui

[xtin]

Hi

Most mailsoftware prevent external images in e-mails from being loaded due to security reasons (Back reporting, Malicious code, etc.), yet the OX-GUI happily displays them. Is there any way (besides not displaying html-mails at all) to prevent this behaviour?

Didn't find anything in wiki, forum or the System itself

Thanks

Hi,

HTML mails can contain more malicious content than just images. If you care about privacy you should disable displaying of HTML mails by default. There is no half-secure or half-insecure solution for HTML E-Mails yet. Currently there is no option to deny the display of images at the Open-Xchange Webmail module - but this topic along with other ones like HTML-Whitelisting of special tags are in discussion and will hopefully find its way to the code soon.
