I've been able to successfully send an HTML email using the latest MAPIEx VBO (HTML), however, I'm not sure how to show embedded images that were in the message.

In my testing, I was accidentally using quotes when the input field was already Text. Removing them worked when I added the images as attachments and referenced them with the src=cid:image001.jpg, for example. This made it really easy to embed images with MAPIEx HTML VBO.
