"Allowed" Remote Content not being displayed

I'm having issues displaying remote content Thunderbird 38.3.0. When the "Options" popup displays I tell it to allow it and even have went into the Settings and told it to allow it for the whole domain i.e., walmart.com and it still gives me a prompt to display remote content each time I display the message. I verified that "view" is set to "original HTML" and still have the same problem.

Other than globally allowing ALL remote content from ALL sites (and not even sure if that will work) is there a fix for this problem?

Thanks

Thanks, I will take a closer look at those "blocked" emails and see if there are other domains listed in there. For some odd reason my exception list was totally gone today so I can start adding new ones and see how (well) it works.

I think maybe one of the problems I was just telling it to show remote content for the first entry (the email address) thinking that it would add all those sub-entries of the domains listed below. I'm guessing that might not work that way and best to just click on all the domains instead of the listed email address.

he mail says it comes from walmart, but take notice of the other domains listed.on that menu. Most of the images will not come from walmart.com.
