Thanks for the detailed configs.  I had my settings correct and nearly
identical to your settings.  The problem still exists that the image
is not getting displayed inline on a number of different email clients
(Outlook, Scalix, Gmail, etc.).  I looked at my raw queue files in my
quarantine (I save everything that is not high spam on my low-volume
server at home) and the inline.html file is getting appended properly.
 Now it appears to be the "Content-ID:" multipart header is not
getting generated in the MIME encoding so there is nothing to match my
src="cid:signature.jpg" img tag.  Could this be the problem?

Working inline email image:
------_=_NextPart_001_01C89E3C.224B45D2
Content-Type: image/gif;
        name="image001.gif"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <image001.gif at 01C89E12.38C00F50>
Content-Description: image001.gif
Content-Location: image001.gif

Non-working inline email image:
------------=_1208183216-10649-0
Content-Type: image/jpeg; name="signature.jpg"
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.jpg"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
MIME-Version: 1.0
X-Mailer: MIME-tools 5.425 (Entity 5.425)
