temporarily allow remote content
When I click "show remote content in this message" there appears no way to reverse that. I would like either a way to revert that setting, or an option for any such settings to expire when Epyrus is closed.

Re: temporarily allow remote content
There is, through Preferences -> Privacy, under "Mail Content" click the "exceptions" button. You can remove blocking exceptions there.

That exception list is empty; it's the first thing I checked. Perhaps it works for "Allow remote content from..." but it does not for "Show remote content in this message."

Ah for individual messages I don't know where this is stored, sorry.

Re: temporarily allow remote content
I haven't used that setting much honestly, I would have to look into how it works, and then see if I can give you some extra controls to tweak how it works.
The truth is, a lot of the code in Epyrus is stuff inherited from Thunderbird that I actually am clueless about, aside from the stuff I already changed. Most of the security-related stuff is part of UXP anyway, so that's fairly safe without my having to do much, but I really don't dig deep into my mail client and use a lot of features beyond using newsgroups or just reading and sending e-mail most of the time, so I am unfamiliar with a fairly large chunk of the functionality that exists in Epyrus.
