Outlook blocks external content in emails by default, including pictures downloaded from outside servers when you open a message. This security feature prevents spammers from tracking whether you've opened their emails. Attached pictures and images from known contacts are not blocked.
To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) A picture that is downloaded from a computer outside the e-mail system when you open the message - This option is correct. Outlook may block pictures that are downloaded from external sources when you open the message to protect against potential security risks.
