If you don't see any pictures in Outlook email, you should enable automatic download..

By default, images in emails in Microsoft Outlook are not automatically downloaded. Most of the time, you can see the frame of the pictures in the email messages, but you won't see the pictures themselves. There is a good reason for this too, as they could be a threat to your privacy. Some content can even compromise the security of your computer. Therefore, you should carefully consider whether you want to allow the automatic download of images.
