Attaching logo image in email body using Send Mail

[Jim Medema]

I’ve got a client who, when creating emails directly in their email program (Apple Mail), includes their logo after the textual part of their signature line. The client wants to do the same thing when using emails are sent from FileMaker using the “Send Mail” script step.

I’ve been putzing with the Send Mail step with no luck. The file attaches easily enough but doesn’t appear at the end of the text in the email.

I’ve played around with the signature settings in the email program which can easily include the logo in the signature IF the emails are created by (or within) the email program, but the FileMaker-created emails don’t inherit the “automatically apply my signature” preference from Mail.

Sending each email as a PDF attachment is not an option, and I'm trying to see if this is possible sans plugin.

Any tips, tricks, thoughts, or ideas?

Much thanks,

Jim

Personally I dislike emails that have "logo" attachments - hundreds of little downloads that show up as attachments. - it gets excessive when you are replying back and forth multiple times.

Perhaps you can look to sending HTML emails and then store the logo on your web server?

or for a more worry free method
