Embedded images not showing up in emails

Embedded images sent by friends via email are showing up only as a question mark in a blue box, whether I open the emails on my iPhone (iOS), MacBook (Safari) or HP (Chrome). I have read all the responses to this problem in the community forum, but none of the answers have worked for me. I messaged Xfinity Comcast but only got an AI that couldn't comprehend the question. And I phoned Xfinity Comcast but only got a circular system whereby I asked the question of the computer-generated answerer, but I just kept getting forwarded around and around with no end in sight. I forwarded the emails to my husband and my daughter to see whether THEY could see the photos on their Macs; they could not. Thank you.

@mmkrzus, thank you for reaching out using the Community Forums. I would be more than happy to assist you with your embedded image concerns. Firstly, do you notice any difference between checking your email for those images while connected to your home network vs another network? For example, if you turn the Wi-Fi off on your phone does the image then load?

@mmkrzus, Out of curiosity, are you using your Xfinity email address and coming across this issue? I didn't see if that was specified before.

Yes. I USED to be able to receive embedded photos. Not sure when that stopped, but I have been using my comcast email for 1-2 decades.

@XfinityJeniece​ 

Was there a resolution to this?  If so, I'm sure that other customers would like to know what it is since this seems to crop up from time to time.

Thanks!

No, there was not. I still have to message Xfinity. I’ll do that tomorrow—haven’t had time. Thank you.
