Description

external resources are not automatically loaded in sanely configured E-Mail clients.

For example in Thunderbird a warning like this will pop up: warning bar of thunderbird

the NextCloud logo is fetched from https://yourserverhere.com/core/img/logo.png?v=3D0 which is opens the door for resource based tracking.

It's not just the NextCloud logo but all image resources. For example in an mail based invite the small icons like CALENDAR ICON and PLACE ICON will not be displayed when viewed in a many E-Mail client (for example Thunderbird with default settings)

Why change this?

  • privacy (readers can be sure that the NC admin does not track them)
  • usability (readers can see the images without clicking away a warning prompt)

Is this technically possible?

  • Yes, you can embed images. For example via MIME Content-ID or via inline embedding

email with small embedded image inside
