Image displayed on email's body

Fabio Negri Cicotti [MCP]

Hi all.

How do I do to display a picture on e-mail's body when visualized using
Outlook Express?

I've set the properties bellow but till now I've got the image shown as that
box with a red "x" (when an image hasn't been downloaded) and the image goes
attached instead of displayed on the e-mail's body.

MailMessage Email = new MailMessage();
Email.Attachments.Add(new MailAttachment(Request.PhysicalApplicationPath +
@"images\logo_email.jpg"));
Email.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html;
Email.From = "x@x.com";
Email.To = "y@y.com";
Email.Subject = "Blablabla blabla";
Email.Body = "<img src='logo_email.jpg'>";

SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "127.0.0.1";
SmtpMail.Send(Email);
Regards,

Sometimes we try to get the hardest way, don't we? The answer comes up
naturaly after think how it works... if we are talking about HTML e-mail
format, why don't put whole URL into IMG tag?

I put

Email.Body = "<img src='http:\\www.somesite.com\images\logo_email.jpg '>";

and it worked out!
Thanks all anyway.

Note that using this approach will bring up the nag dialog about downloading
images from the web in OL 2003 and OE SP2.

If that's not acceptable, you can embed the image in the mail as a MIME
encoded message using CDO.
