PHPmailer AddEmbeddedImage attaches image and but does not embed

[Dumps]

I've used AddEmbeddedImage as detailed in the PHPmailer documentation to embed an image in an email:

...$mail->IsHTML(true);	
$mail->AddEmbeddedImage("images/$picciename", "my", "PropertyID_$propid", "base64", "image/jpeg");
$mail->Subject = "Property details for property $propid";

$mail->Body = "Embedded Image: <img src=\"cid:my\" >";...

 

The email is sent successfully but the image is attached rather than embedded in the body of the email which is my objective.

 

Can anyone help?

i know this might seem a bit late but you could try to change the last parameter in the AddEmbeddedImage to "application/octet-stream" (or just leave out the last two parameters).

A bit late?  I would say very late, like over 2 years late...

i've used to have the same problem.

 

in my case, the path to the image was the problem.
