title: sending html mail with images not displaying in gmail
body: <p>I am sending html emails through php . the email has a background image that is not showing when i test it with gmail, hotmail or yahoo mail. I have tried to use an image tag but that doesnt work either.
  the image works perfectly fine if using an email client like OSX Mail or Mozilla or outlook.
  Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>sorry about not adding any code. here is how i tried to implement it :</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;div style="border-bottom:1px solid #CCCCCC; padding:0 20px; background-color:#EDEDED; background-image:url(http://www.mysitename.com/images/email_header.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 520px center; height:120px;"&gt; 
  Header 
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>gmail works fine for displaying other attachments and pictures but i guess it blocks html images ( even if they r background images)</p>
