Hi again,
btw your example can be simplified like that (the DataSourceUrlResolver
already supports embedding resources automatically):
ImageHtmlEmail email = new ImageHtmlEmail();
email.setDataSourceResolver(new DataSourceUrlResolver(null)); // or your
local domain if you have relative urls
email.setHtmlMsg("<html>The apache logo - <img
src=\""+mailDetails.get("logoURL")+"\"></html>");
