Send email with an avatar [closed]

Question

Few days ago I got an newsletter from an company to my Gmail address and I don't have this company in my contact list. Normally the avatar image is empty when you get some newsletter or email from someone that you don't have in your contact list but this time the company has set a avatar to their newsletter.

Now to my question. Can I specify an image to be shown as an avatar on the emails I'll send from my website? If yes, how?

Answer 1

The avatar displayed in Gmail is depending on which Google account that is connected to the senders email address. For example if you send your emails from [email protected] and have a Gmail (or Google+ etc.) account for that email and added a profile picture it will be displayed.
