You can use one of the following options to work around this issue.

1. Get Power BI RLS to work with external users by using map user name feature. There is a blog for your reference.
2. Create separate report with the external users data already filtered out, then share the separate dashboard to external users.

Do your colleagues can view contents of the shared dashboard in web browser after clicking the link? If so, there is no issues with Power BI. Please note that when you share dashboard to colleagues, both you and the colleagues should have pro license.

The boxes and crosses you describe are related to settings of your email client(e.g.outlook). You can review the following example, right click the notification in the first screenshot and choose "Download pictures", you will be able to view images as shown in the second screenshot.
