I'm having the same problem. I have followed the directions for the "Trust Center." It has not worked. I don't have this issue with other laptops on my network. What else can it be?

Same here. All options set as described but pictures are not automatically downloaded - for NO sender, even though I have added dozens if not hundreds as "safe senders". Outlook 2016 on Windows 10
