I may have misunderstood what the sysadmin said. I just checked my Apple Mail preferences. Under the Viewing tab, I see that I have the box checked for "Load remote content in message". Is sounds like I should uncheck that box, right? If I do uncheck it, will I see a bunch of generic icons for any content, and will I then have an option to view the content if I believe it's from a trusted source?
