I am editing one of my old scripts to send an email to a user with images embedded into the text. I am trying to use the Send-MailMessage function to send the email as opposed to the older method of $smtp.send($msg). However, when trying to update the script, the images are no longer being embedded.
I know how to attach them to the email as actual attachments, but I am not sure what I am doing wrong to have them show as actual embedded images.
NOTE: for brevity, I removed some of the full email since it is large and as long as I can get an image or two working, it will all work.
