Seeing images even though "Always show images" is "No"

Hi, as the title says, I am seeing remote images when I open a specific sender’s email for the first time. They are definitely URLs (at mailchimp), not embedded full images. The “Show remote images” button still appears above the email itself, I have definitely not pressed that (waited for a second days’ email to verify that).

When I read the email on my computer (with Thunderbird, actually), the images are not displayed, it seems app specific to me that they are appearing in K-9 Mail. Image attached.

What could I have done to allow this? How do I prevent it? I’ve just started testing K-9 mail after the paid app I have been using for a long time switched to subscription.

It’s possible that the image is cached. Try opening the message while in airplane mode.

Ok, gotta correct the post above (removed). Yes, that was it! I could still see the image files, but they were somewhere on the device already (probably from another day’s email). Once I cleared the cache for K-9 email, those no longer appeared. Thank you for the answer! :slight_smile:
