Hey, I just installed Mautic. I want to embed a picture in my email, but the source of the image should not related to an url. Instead of this, the image should be embedded with the cid feature of emails, which is supported by almost all email clients. Information about cid: - [email - Mail RFC embedded image using cid for text/plain - Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48640816/mail-rfc-embedded-image-using-cid-for-text-plain) - [RFC 2387: The MIME Multipart/Related Content-type](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2387) Is this currently possible or not? Thanks. ---

From my understanding, Mautic only support Base64 inline embedding. This is enabled in the Mautic setting under “email” if I recall correctly. ---

Yes I know, I can also do this manually by a raw code email, but base64 encoded images in emails are not displayed by the most web email clients, like gmail.
