Office for Mac 15.21.1 and Outlook message "some of the files in this web page aren't in the expected location...."

Life prior to 15.21.1 upgrade was OK.

Could start Outlook for Mac, select new email and away I go.

Following the update to 15.21.1, every time I start a new email or reply to a new email I get the message "some of the files in this web page aren't in the expected location. do you want ot download them anyway? if you're sure the web page is from a trusted source, click yes"

I assume it's referring to my signature, which is provided to my by my employer, so I trust it :-)

After that, I keep getting annoying clicks when I type on the keyboard, or boing noises...didn't encounter this, pre 15.21.1

    No it was not. The issue is still there. Add an image to your signature and you get a popup "Some of the files in this Web page aren't in the expected location ..." (two popups). Press "Yes" on both popups and you get your signature with image and all. Press "No" and you get a red cross where the image should have been (missing image). I'm on build 160916 v. 15.26.1

    I'm having this issue with an email address and a logo. Upgraded today, 10/6/16 to (161003). The logo does not have a link, it is pasted in. I've attempted the changes in the video and cannot get this fixed.

    This just in: I cannot schedule meetings with a signature at all. At least standard emails are possible to send, even though you get that annoying popup twice first. What happens when I try to send a meeting invitation with my signature is a window saying "Outlook can't save images in this kind of item".

    Not only another error in relation with signatures with images in them but a completely braindead error message.

    I cannot fathom how this is still an issue that has not even been thoroughly investigated, it affects businesses every day. Please get a grip on this NOW Microsoft. You have plenty of people here giving you their help if needed to track the issue.

    Sebuks - Outlook for Mac currently doesn't support saving inline images (such as in signatures) in meeting invites - Can you please help me with how you are inserting your signature in a meeting.
