Re: Error opening mail with pictures - "The linked image cannot be displayed"
The link works, but the image that is used in the hyperlink fails.
The hyper link is created like in the following example - so the link you click can be valid but the image link is not.
Code:
<a href="http://www.domain.com/ems/link.php"><img src="http://www.domain.com/ems/connect-twitter.png" alt="Follow us on Twitter"></a
one thing a lot of places do is use just "//www.domain.com/ems/connect-twitter.png" for the hyperlink. Most clients know to add the http but Outlook doesn't. I think this was fixed in 2013 but I'm not sure if it was fixed in 2010.
