I've written a simple class sending an HTML email with an embedded
image (cf. below) via GMail SMTP.  It works perfectly fine when run

The same code in a GAE mail servlet handler produce the infamous
"Converting attachment data failed" error.

So it really seems to be a problem in GAE javamail implementation.
