### 󠀁[Leaves out media in email](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/leaves-out-media-in-email/)󠁿

 [cxanders](https://profiles.wordpress.org/cxanders/) September 3, 2016

Great idea, simple to install and function works great BUT: it cannot import images
with the email text. I haven’t tried with other media or attachments, what’s the
use if it can’t do the simple image import as well as the text. Fix that and you’ve
got a winner. Would nice to be able to adjust the refresh time as well but not as
important as the lack of image support.
