Hello there,

I've been testing the latest version of Simplenews for quite some time now.

When I send a test e-mail everyting works fine on my Mail.app, Outlook, and Gmail inbox. When I send out the real newsletter I get a problem in Gmail.

I added an inline image (.gif) between the text of my newsletter issue, but it doen't come through in my Gmail inbox. Only the link on this banner image is sent. The strange thing is I only see this in the real version of the newsletter in Gmail (test goes well!).

I tried the following:

- changing e-mail sending options: cron or no cron
- changing styling options: with/without simplenews template

But this does not make a difference.

Anyone seen the same problem?

Thanks!

Yes, I have the exact same issue. Test mails go through well, final emails have incorrect image paths.

for me, with Simplenews 6.x-1.0-rc6 or Simplenews 6.x-1.0-dev, MimeMail 6.x-1.x-dev, and Drupal 6.12, if I hardcode the full url onto images, they show up in Gmail and in Thunderbird (via British Columbia's Telus internet provider); if I do not hardcode the url, the images only show up in Gmail.

This might be caused by Simplenews or by Mime mail. Have you searched the mime mail issue queue? Do you use the latest dev release of the modules?

Anyone with a solution out there? I am going crazy trying to figure it out: there are lots of similar issues under both simplenews and mime mail, however, none of them seem to work.
My problem: Mime Mail 6.x-1.0-alpha1, Simplenews 6.x-1.0, drupal 6.16, inline images are broken when viewed on gmail web interface: src attribute is completely removed from img tag, e.g., Only local images are allowed.
Other tested clients(Thunderbird, Mail, Outlook, even other web-based clients) seem to work fine....

ok, I made it work: get rid of Mime Mail ! Use htmlMail instead!!! btw, only disabling MimeMail is not enough, you really need to get rid of it.

Hope this helps to someone...
