You could use file_get_contents('http://yourserver/path/to/phpfile.php');
and then use this as message body. Executing PHP code on clientside is
(fortunately) not possible.

There are two ways, for each one, you set the src= of the image to a PHP
script.
1. This script increments the count and redirects the user to the image
using a Location-header.
2. After incrementing the counter, the script outputs the image directly
(don't forget the Content-Type header)

<img src="http://example.net/mailcontent/myimage.php" alt="" />

@ http://example.net/mailcontent/myimage.php:
<?php
file_put_contents('count.txt',1+(int)file_get_cont ents('count.txt'));
header('Location: http://example.net/mailcontent/myimage.jpeg');
?>
