I tend to mess around with a few mail clients to see what’s new and
around (and then come back to MM). One thing that I found in the
latest version of PostBox that I would love too see in MM (if
possible) is the inclusion of their [Anti-tracking
feature](https://www.postbox-inc.com/features).
In theory, MM could display the same dialog it does now, not showing
images unless we say it’s ok, but also indicate if said email has
tracking pixel in
Arguably, *all* remote images are tracking pixels, regardless of how
many pixels they contain. Even without individualising the image URLs,
you can more or less strongly correlate image loads to email recipients
based on other qualifiers (User-Agent, time of day,...).
That said, I wouldn't object if MailMate could make an educated guess
about images being "tracking pixels" in the stricter sense.
