Apple Mail is the email client I use as it looks good and has a great search function. But it doesn't matter if you use Apple Mail or something else, if you don’t want your every move tracked, you have to prevent your email client from loading external images. On OS X, I use Apple Mail and the way I block external images is with Little Snitch.
The way to do it is to block all connections except the ones you allow.
deny all connections Apple Mail Little Snitch
But for some services you do want to see the external images.

- WYSIWYG style configuration now resides in plugin options.
Easier configuration - no need to edit your CSS file to make your editor true WYSIWYG. Don't worry, your old configuration will still work.
- Image management tool now appears with the right year/month/ directory opened.
Your blog contributors won't upload images into your root image directory anymore.
- All uploaded images above certain height and width (check out plugin options) are sized down to fit into it.
Well, this won't handle those insane 5000 x 3000 px images some people try to put into their posts (as it's just too big for the PHP memory), but at least it takes care of the oversized 2000 px wide images which won't fit on your screen when opened. The default setting is 960 px of either width or height.
- Works on sites with secured wp-config.
- Insert FV WordPress Flowplayer button added.
Let's you use our popular video plugin with ease.
- Pasting dialog receives focus when it appears.
- Dreamhost JSON glitch fixed.
Head on to our Foliopress WYSIWYG plugin page or WordPress.org.

A lot of our plugins use embedded shortcodes inside square brackets.
Our embedded shortcodes look something like this:
[command parameter=something value=number]
The reason we use square brackets is that square brackets parse just fine in WYSIWYG editors including our own Foliopress WYSIWYG.
We've had a lot of simple questions about how to use our FV WordPress Flowplayer. I couldn't understand why. The instructions are pretty straightforward.
It turns out that the shortcodes were being parsed and showing the result instead of the code people should be using. How anybody managed to get the plugin working without the short codes is a bit of mystery to me. But they did. Wow can people be ingenious sometimes.
