I think the keyword there is "inline."

  Many e-mail clients display the photos attached to plain text e-mail messages as "inline", you do not need a HTML message for that.

    So how do I put text between them?
    • OJFord 4y ago
      For that I think you have to use text/html so that you can reference the inline image's Content-ID. The rest of the 'HTML' could be plaintext of course, just needed for the <img>. You could also have related text/plain and text/html only for wherever you need the image - but support of that is probably even patchier than inline attachments.

      Send your formatted document with embedded images as an attachment.

        You could even send it as an HTML document, and if your email client supports it, it could display the document right in the client!

      While this is something that I do not remember using, because I typically attach all the pictures at the end of the message, all the e-mail clients that I have used have 2 menu options while composing a plain text message: "Insert file" and "Attach file". I believe that "Insert file" should insert a picture in the middle of the plain text, unlike "Attach file".
