And this:
TL;DR: it appears that the upcoming macOS Sonoma will not support the free version of MailTrackerBlocker that is in GitLab. Instead, the author has put a new version on the App store, and now charges $5 for it.
If the free version continues to perform well I¡¯m happy to pay the $5 when I update to Sonoma
Enjoy,
Jim

they involve sneaky things like a hidden remote image single pixel whose job it is to let the senders know you read the email.
This is why you should block remote content except from trusted senders. It is not an issue with normal plain text mail. The problem happens if people send HTML in e-mail.
