Sometimes I click the wrong option at the top of a message from a new contact, and that option to show or not show remote contrent for that sender disappears and is never seen again.

Is there away torestore that option somewhere? I have searched everywhere.

Settings/Privacy & Security, Mail Content, Exceptions... to manage senders to allow/block remote content.

Thanks. I've tried that a number of times today and in the past but it does not bring back the choice banner and there seems to be no way to do that. sometimes the remote content may be from other associated domains and so whitelisting the email source does not solve the problem. It is very puzzling and annoying that there is no way to change one's mind after clicking the wrong choice by mistake.

In cases where remote content in a single message is loaded from several sources (associated domains), merely whitelisting the sender might not be sufficient. It's probably easier to just delete all entries from Exceptions and force the Options banner to appear for all new messages. Short of trying to figure out which domains to block or unblock, I don't know of any other way to reset.
