I am having a problem sending HTML Emails with inline image attachments
against the client Microsoft Outlook 2000 SP-3.
I am using commons-email-1.0.jar

With an HtmlEmail I am embedding 2 images, adding an HTML part and Text part.

The resultant Body structure is:

Entity  Content-Type            Encoding
1       text/plain              7bit
2       multipart/related
2.1     text/html               7bit
2.2     image/jpeg              base64
2.3     image/jpeg              base64

Outlook, by default, shows the text part with the HTML email as an
attachment (correctly showing the images).  My "problem" is that I think
the HTML should be shown by default.

If I eliminate the text part the situation is not resolved; I get this
structure which is still not interpreted properly:
Entity  Content-Type    Name    Encoding
1       text/html               7bit
2       multipart/related
2.1     image/jpeg              base64
2.2     image/jpeg              base64

I am guessing that it is an issue with this particular email client and
the Body Structure?
(seeing the discussion on here, for example,
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30973)

If this is not a fault in the email package, is there a workaround for
Outlook 2000 SP-3?
