Notes
Under some conditions -- and we have not been able to pinpoint
what -- if you merely save the message, not send it, and later open
it from Drafts, the graphic appears as a normal attachment, not as
an embedded graphic. Therefore, until we figure out this issue, we
recommend that any project using this technique either display the
item or send it. One suggestion if you are using Visual Basic to
create the message is that the image may need to be in the App.Path
of the VB application.
If
you want to include the image as a background, rather than as an
inline image, you can simply append this tag to the existing
HTMLBody property (Thanks to Leo de Keijzer for this tip!):
<BODY background=cid:myident></BODY>
To attach multiple embedded images to a
message, set the value of the &H3712001E
field for each file to a unique string,
which you will use in the src parameter for
the <img> tag for that image.
If you don't care about the message
showing an attachment icon or the image not
being visible to the sender, you can use
code like this snippet to use the name of
the attachment, which Outlook will
automatically use for the cid value:
