I don't like the idea of disabling image blocking, but the changes 
needed for WKWebView might be too much of a hassle to keep the WebView 
solution for earlier macOS releases. In that case, disabling image 
blocking for earlier releases might be a solution. Alternatively, I can 
possibly still block things using different methods.

(But I'm probably not close to completing the WKWebView solution.)

I'm glad that's an option for you, but note that around 25% of 
registered MailMate users used a Gmail-address when registering. In 
addition to that, many users have secondary email addresses using Gmail 
and/or custom domains with Gmail-accounts. I wouldn't be surprised if 
more than 50% of MailMate users somehow rely on at least 1 Gmail 
address. I have to do whatever I can to continue to support Gmail.
