How to add images premission email header for gmail mail
To add an image permission email header for Gmail mail, you can use the Disposition-Notification-To
and Content-Type
headers. Here's an example:
Example Email Header:
From: Your Name <[email protected]>
To: Recipient's Email <[email protected]>
Subject: Image Permission Request
Disposition-Notification-To: [email protected]
Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="----boundary_string----"
----boundary_string----
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Please confirm that you permit the inclusion of images in this email.
----boundary_string----
Content-Type: image/jpeg; name="image.jpg"
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="image.jpg"
[Insert the image data here]
----boundary_string----
Explanation:
Disposition-Notification-To
: specifies the email address that should receive a notification when the recipient views the email.Content-Type
: specifies the type of content in the email. In this case, we're usingmultipart/related
to indicate that the email contains multiple parts, including a text part and an image part.boundary
: specifies the boundary string that separates the different parts of the email. You can choose any unique string for this purpose.Content-Type
for the text part: specifies the type of content as plain text.Content-Type
for the image part: specifies the type of content as JPEG image.Content-Disposition
: specifies how the image should be displayed. In this case, we're usinginline
to display the image directly in the email.
Tips:
- Make sure to replace
[email protected]
,[email protected]
, andimage.jpg
with your actual email addresses and image file name. - You can use any image file format (e.g., PNG, GIF, BMP) instead of JPEG.
- If you're using a programming language to send the email, you may need to encode the image data and add the necessary headers manually.
- Gmail may strip or modify the email headers, so it's essential to test the email in different email clients to ensure it works as expected.
