Actually every HTML part should be an attachment, though some clients don't do it that way when they're sending HTML-only messages without pictures. When the message includes inline pictures, the pictures need to be sent along with the message and that has to be done as attachments. The HTML body wil be referring to those attachments and the HTML part will also be defined as a separate part like an attachment, just as the text part is when your using attachments. However, both the text part and the HTML part don't need to be MIME encoded, they can be sent as readable text. Pictures always need to be MIME encoded as they might contain characters that aren't allowed in e-mails, hence the encoding.

I saw your message as it was stopped by the server and then the message contained the picture as an inline picture. Hoewever, that was read by TB and as HTML in e-mail is a bit of a gray area, some clients do stuff different. -- Groetjes, Roelof A Fool and his Taglines are soon moderators. <= Yikes! http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ The Bat! 5.2.1.1 (BETA) Windows 7 6.1 Build 7601 Service Pack 1 5 pop3 accounts, 2 imap accounts OTFE disabled i7-2600 3.4GHz 4 GB RAM ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
