Re: [ilugd] Adding an image to Disclaimer on Outgoing e-mails
The final email shows up correctly in KMail and Thunderbird with the image being displayed after the disclaimer text, but not so in M$ Outlook. Well it comes as an attachment on M$ Outlook. You might want to read the following blog post. http://www.37signals.com/svn/posts/604-navigating-the-html-email-jungle An excerpt: As I type this post I still can't believe it. I'm literally stunned. If you haven't already heard, I'm talking about the recent news that Outlook 2007, released next month, will stop using Internet Explorer to render HTML emails and instead use the crippled Microsoft Word rendering engine. An easy solution is to simply send an email from Thunderbird with an inline image and see if it opens properly in Outlook. If it does, just view the source and make sure your python script is generating *exactly* the same source. I've noticed that random stuff like not putting angular brackets cid:abc around the inline part name also causes some mail clients to barf.

Yes that works, but only when loading of remote images is enabled in the MUA. And is the right way to go about it . Still I had to go on the other path of embedding the image in the original message and adding those extra headers and mime attachments . ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

[ilugd] Adding an image to Disclaimer on Outgoing e-mails
Hi all, Now the higher ones want the company logo as part of disclaimer on all outgoing email. The setup for disclaimer is postfix --- altermime postfix , which is very well documented and works like a charm. So to add the image, passing the output from altermime to a python script which first checks for Content-Type Multipart and then inserts the image and the HTML tags to src the image as a Multipart/Releted attachment to the original message. The final email shows up correctly in KMail and Thunderbird with the image being displayed after the disclaimer text, but not so in M$ Outlook. Well it comes as an attachment on M$ Outlook. Has anyone done this before? Any tips? Am I going about it the right way? This is a quick hack, dont know much about MIME , so was hoping for some quick hints here, otherwise will have to thumb through the MIME RFCs . The setup is: Debian Sarge Postfix 2.1.5-9 Python 2.3.5 Python email package 2.5.5 altermime (built from source) 0.3.8 TIA, jasbir ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
