I have written below code to embed image in the mail which is being sent from my c# code. But when i check the mail, i get image like an attachment and not as an inline image. (Gmail)
AlternateView htmlBodyView = null;
string htmlBody = "<html><body><h1></h1><br><img src=\"cid:SampleImage\"></body></html>";
AlternateView plainTextView = AlternateView.CreateAlternateViewFromString(htmlBody, null, "text/html");
ImageConverter ic = new ImageConverter();
Byte[] ba = (Byte[])ic.ConvertTo(bitmap_obj, typeof(Byte[]));
using (MemoryStream logo = new MemoryStream(ba))
{
LinkedResource sampleImage = new LinkedResource(logo, "image/jpeg");
sampleImage.ContentId = "sampleImage";
htmlBodyView.LinkedResources.Add(sampleImage);
p.SendEmail(htmlBodyView);
}

For reference, a full working simplified example:
public void SendMail()
{
LinkedResource logo = new LinkedResource(
"images\\image005.png", //Path of file
"image/png"); //Mime type: Important!
logo.ContentId = "logo"; //ID for reference
//Actual HTML content of the body in an 'AlternateView' object.
AlternateView vw = AlternateView.CreateAlternateViewFromString(
"Hello, this is <b>HTML</b> mail with embedded image: <img src=\"cid:logo\" />",
null,
MediaTypeNames.Text.Html); //Mime type: again important!
vw.LinkedResources.Add(logo);
var msg = new MailMessage() { IsBodyHtml = true };
msg.AlternateViews.Add(vw);
msg.From = new MailAddress("[email protected]");
msg.To.Add(new MailAddress("[email protected]"));
msg.Subject = "HTML Mail!";
using (var client = new SmtpClient("localhost", 25))
client.Send(msg);
}
