I'm sending an HTML email with linked images, like:
<img src="https://www.test.com/image.jpg">
When I open them on my iPhone Mail app it doesn't show the images, even though I have Mail set to auto-load images. Every other email I open auto-loads images. When I open them on my Mac Mail client they do load. Is there anything special I have to do in my HTML to get the images to load? I looked at my source compared to emails that I can see the images and they appear to be doing the same thing. Any ideas?
Thanks
It turns out this occurs if you use "HTTPS" for image links. Once I changed them to HTTP the images loaded fine. Thanks

I made some simple HTML files and tried to open them on my iPhone, in both the files app and some third party HTML viewer apps from the App Store, but the images are not being displayed, not a single one.
It‘s not because the image is in another folder or the file path is incorrect, I‘ve checked all that. Also I‘ve looked up the issue and it seems that this might be caused by too large png files, but I tried to resize the images and also changing them to jpg, but still didn‘t work. So what could be the issue here?
I‘ve attached an image of the result that I get with this example code (the png file is in the same folder as the HTML file):
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
Test
<br>
<br>
<img src="image.png">
</body>
</html>

This is almost certainly a security related issue.
I ran into this helping a friend who was working on an email newsletter and sent it to herself as an attachment. Opening in gmail showed the same behavior - no images.
So I tried saving the file to the Files app and opening it. Same thing. Loading the page from a web server it worked n
It doesn’t entirely make sense why they need to be so strict - the same thing in a desktop browser would show images. But I don’t think there’s anything you can do in this case.
Saving as a complete web page archive may work if the goal is to email an attachment that someone needs to open - but that’s not a common thing to do and if you send the message as a real email it’ll work fine.
Here's the thing, I want to send some text and pictures in a email, but decide what image to use AFTER I send the e-mail (Yeah, it sounds pointless and confusing, but it isn't pointless for the use I want to give it, believe me) so this was my idea:
I send the mail in html format using an embed image like this (I'm gonna use a real image I'm trying to send):
<img src="http://rodrigophp.byethost15.com/CAS/1/Tex1.png">
After the mail is sent, I go to a web I programmed, and using some php the desired image gets copied to the "/CAS/1/" directory, and renamed to "Tex1.png".
It all worked just fine about half a year ago, when I opened the recieved mail (after I set what image I wanted, to avoid browser's cache) it all worked perfectly.
But recently I tried it again, and it works If I see the mail recieved in gmail:
Gmail shows properly
But when I open it in outlook website or from my iOS devices, images won't show (and yes, I have the "download images" setting activated in iOS):
Outlook mail and iOS mail don't show the image (Tested on iPhone 5 and iPad 4 both iOS 9.2.1
I have no idea what's going on, it's like outlook web and iOS mail app can't access the URL, but it's clearly accesible for google mail web (but not if I open my gmail account in my mobile phone. The same mail, in the same account, can be seen on browser but can't be seen from Mail app.)
What's going on here? any ideas how to make it work? It worked perfectly for all of them about half a year ago!
When sending an email with an html attachment, the images in the attachment do not appear on a phone. This recently started, they used to appear and nothing has changed on my end. the images are hosted on photobucket.
Could it be a security issue with iphone, an issue with the code or issue with photobucket?
The images in my html email fail to load completely. The email was written in dreamweaver. I've tested the email on various clients: hotmail, gmail, outlook on mac and windows. The images load fine on the others, just not completely on hotmail/outlook.com. I've also hosted the images on tinypic to eradicate the possible hosting issues.
Is there any other codes I'm missing? Is it possibly the size of the images?

Did you perhaps forget the end quote?
You show:
src="http://i58.tinypic.com/255kmjn.png;
it should be

We are creating one newsletter for our client. We are sending images used in newsletter as attachment and giving image path as below:
<img src="sample.jpg" />
However this work well in outlook and but all other mail client and mobile device like iPad/iPhone does not show images as default instead of this they show images as attachment of mail.
Any guess or solution for this. Why this happening like this and does not show images used in newsletter while loading an email.
This is not best practice for email. You should host the images online:
<img src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/sample.jpg" />
Alternatively, you can look into embedding the images in base64.
