Hi,
I having a problem, I'm using ASPMAIL to create and send some e-mail's. I want to send a HTML body message with an image. How can I send the email with the image but I don't want to put:
scr=
I want it to be able to be seen offline.

I've received a message with something like that and the SCR was like:
src="cid:000601c0c94e$02dddb60$5e02050a@myemail.com"

what is that??


Thanks
 
I think (guessing at this one) that when you view an email, it is downloaded localy, images and all. So, if you have an image like scr=bla bla.. and you view the email, then disconnect from the internet, you will still be able to view that image because the email is local once viewed once. www.vzio.com

but do you know what this src means?

src="cid:000601c0c94e$02dddb60$5e02050a@myemail.com"

this is from an e-mail I got from my sister, this src is in the <img> tag
 
It would most likly be a temporary internet folder where the have a bunch of pictures, and they make them long like that, so other pictures don't match the same name. (?!?) www.vzio.com

src=&quot;cid:000601c0c94e$02dddb60$5e02050a@myemail.com&quot;

this was probably an email received from either AOL or MSN, normally MSN codes their email as such, but I don't know what it means. It probably has to do with cookie variables or something similar.
