So, just finally moved from Ventura to Sonoma 14.5. Didn't change any settings in Mail or Little Snitch. Now Little Snitch is catching an outbound connection from every spam and mailing list email I touch, or even as they arrive and I don't touch anything. In Ventura, Little Snitch wasn't flagging them.
Little Snitch tells me not to block them or it can break mail, but they are obviously from EMS or GlobalIndustries or whatever is trying to track me at that minute.
I've got mail set to Hide IP Address and Block All Remote Content, as I did in Ventura. Images indeed are blocked, but some other tracker is connecting.
Since the senders are tracking connections, they know it's me -- they sent me this email, probably a unique code in the connection.
I didn't get these warnings on Ventura. It seems either Mail is now worse at actually blocking all remote content -- or I suppose it's possible Little Snitch has a better idea what mail is doing now in Sonoma, but I don't think that's it. I think mail is now letting every email phone home even if I'm not even opening them, if they go to junk or spam.
I mean, I guess there's nothing to do about this, but bloody hell. Either accept that all privacy is completely dead, or keep swatting these flies away all day.
