outlook, office 365
we just installed office 2016 (office 365 proplus ) on our desktops.
we noticed that in new outlook client we do not have the option to automatically download images in our email.
is this an intentional settings or a default one that we can enable
can we enable -permit downloads in RSS terms - can it be a concern

On the File tab, choose Options > Trust Center.

Clear the Don't download pictures automatically in HTML e-mail messages or RSS items check box.

Hi pramod1,
If they are all ticked then you are telling Outlook to "not" download these automatically,
You could try on one machine removing the tick from the top option: "Don't download pictures automatically in HTML e-mail messages or RSS items"
then restart Outlook and see if it now works as you expect :)

Hi pramod1,
Just on the back of your last comment,
Yes, this could be a policy governing this, if you are on a domain, this could be being controlled by Group Policy, I have also seen this when certain anti-virus packages take control of attachment handling and junk options,
Are you on a domain?
What anti-virus/spam software have you got installed?

Hi pramod1,
Thank you for the image,
It appears it's a Security Restriction, we need to know whats controlling this, it could be:
1. Group Policy - If your computers log on to a domain network
2. Anti-Virus / Spam Software - They some times install a toolbar which gives it away
3. Local Policy - You could test this by right clicking on your Outlook icon and selecting "Run As Administrator" - I'd rule out points 1. & 2. first
Could you let me know whether you log on to a domain and what anti virus / spam you use?

what do u mean by:

I think this could fix it, as someone mentioned above could be GPO
