    This is not good - MS please fix.

    I show people how to use OneDrive as a workaround, but most users have GMail and that works !

    Between this missing feature and not having a setting to not change the email as read just by viewing it I now have to move to another app.  Trying Nine out now.  Has everything I'm looking for except viewing shared calendars on o365.  For now, that's all I'll use outlook for Android for.  Any other suggested apps?

    Thanks.

    I had an email a couple weeks ago from uservoice.  I had a small vote going and its been merged.

    Voted. It's at 2040 votes now. 

    I've seen the problem both as sender and receiver, and I was unable to see the images sent to me by a business correspondent. My email system blocked the incoming images. As the sender, there isn't even a way to rotate the images. They sit in the body of the email lying sideways. Very unprofessional looking.
