      I'm trying to place inline images with the body message, and the images shows broken, they appear at the end as attachments, but I need them inline with the text.
      So I did a research and this worked for me:
      You can utilize Google Drive for image hosting purposes via Doc.
      1. Open Google Docs and create a new document and give it a name like "Images for Emails"
      2. In the top right corner of the Google Docs interface, click the Share button.
      3. From the sharing window, select Advanced
      4. Under Who has access click Change... from the right column.
      5. Select On - Anyone with the link and confirm the change by clicking Save
      6. Insert the image into the Google Doc
      7. Select the image and copy it from the Google Doc and paste it into the Compose window.
      As long as the Google Doc is not deleted from your Google Drive, the image will always be accessible and will display properly when sent.
      I hope this helps other people trying to do the same.
