Requirement:

Send a mail with inline image with out attaching the image as attachment using powershell.

My Powershell Code:

$CcEmails = "CcEmails@gmail.com"
$userName = "From@gmail.com"
$ImageName = "codecover.png"
$FilePath = "D:$($ImageName)"
$Attachment = @($FilePath)
$Subject = "Test Subject"
$password = "From Email password"
$SMTPServer = "smtp.outlook.com"
$SMTPPort = "587"
$Body += "<img src='$($ImageName)' />"

[string][ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]$password = $password
$securePassword = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $password -AsPlainText -Force
$Credentials = New-Object Management.Automation.PSCredential ($userName, $securePassword)

Send-MailMessage -From $From -to $ToEmails -Cc $CcEmails -Subject $Subject -BodyAsHtml -Body $Body -SmtpServer $SMTPServer -port $SMTPPort -UseSsl -Credential $Credentials -Attachments $Attachment –DeliveryNotificationOption OnSuccess

Problem with my Result:

Result of the mail sending with inline attachment but the same image is in attachments which i dont want. Please find the screen shot below

Please suggest me how to send the inline images without attaching that image in attachments.

You can have it base64 encoded.

$Byte = [system.io.file]::ReadAllBytes("C:yourImage.png")
$Base64 = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($Byte)
$Content = '012' -f '<img src="data:image/png;base64,',$Base64,'">'

Use the content as the message Body.
