' There are two ways of embedding images in emails: with CIDs
' and without. When using CIDs, the IMG SRC attributes use
' urls that begin with "cid:" and the corresponding image
' embedded within the email includes a Content-ID header field.
' When not using CIDs, the IMG SRC attribute can have a URL,
' path, etc. and the corresponding image embedded within
' the email has a matching Content-Location header field.
' When testing with GMail, if CIDs are used the email will
' be displayed with images blocked (by default) unless
' the user allows them to be displayed. Without CIDs,
' the images are automatically displayed.
' When testing with Eudora, Mozilla Thunderbird, and Outlook Express,
' embedded images display correctly with our without CIDs.
' When testing with Yahoo! Mail, embedded images display OK.
' However, the Yahoo! Mail user has the option of blocking
' images. If this is turned on, the CID images will still
' display correctly even though images are blocked. Why?
' It's because when viewing the email there is no external
' HTTP request to fetch an image. Therefore, a spammer
' cannot get an indication that you've read the email.
' However, if CIDs are not used, the images are blocked by
' any Yahoo! Mail user that has image blocking turned on --
' even though the images are embedded.
' I haven't tested Hotmail yet...
' Regardless, there is no perfect solution. If CIDs are used,
' GMail users may block your embedded images, if CIDs are not
' used, Yahoo! Mail users may block your embedded images.
' I recommend setting using CIDs. This is what Mozilla Thunderbird
' does by default, and it's the more clear an unambiguous way
' to indicate that images are indeed embedded.
