MailMessage - including graphics

Bijoy Naick

I'm using the MailMessage and SmtpMail classes to send HTML emails from my
website. Just wondering if there is a way to include graphics with the
email, which I can reference in the HTML.

If you use an absolute reference, it will fetch the image from your server.

people that view their email offline will also be able to view the
graphics..

That tends to be a bad idea because of the size of the email when
including graphics. Using an absolute reference is pretty standard and
performs much better than embedded images. Do you have a definite need
for including the images or is it a preference issue?

I've done quite a few HTML emails in the past, and I've always used abs
reference.. However, in this case, there is a need for it.

Just wondering if there's a way of doing that in .NET

Sorry Bijoy, I'm not real familiar with embedding the images into the
email.

Thanks,
