It doesn't look like the ContentID is exposed when using automation components. You most likely could add the ContentID in a script, but at this point that is what you are doing.

When you are constructing the Body text create it using Html then change the BodyFormat to olFormatHTML. This works the same way as .NET.

Hi Jeffbadger,
I tried as attached in the screen shot. I have image in my local drive and prepared body using html table format and added image using img attribute. I am able to see image if I sent mail to myself. If I forward the mail to someone, they are not able to see the image. (It will display as below)
Please help.

Here is how you would do it in C#:

So, basically you would add the image as an attachment, assign it a content ID and then reference that in your Html. You should follow those steps in your automation.
