Hi,

I am trying to send email from an application that includes HTML code with
embedded images.

I am sending my message via SMTP with Content-Type of multipart/related

I am scanning the HTML code and replace every <img src="filename.gif"> with
something that looks like:

<img src="cid:filename.gif@eAuthor">

And for each image needed I add a part with the following headers:

Content-Type: image/gif; name="filename.gif"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: Base64
Content-ID: <filename.gif@eAuthor>

When I am trying to read the messages in Eudora Pro or Outlook Express it
seems that all the stuff is downloaded and the HTML is displayed, but the
images are not displayed.

Anyone knows what I am doing wrong ?

Thanks,
Ron.
