Hmm. Never tried the cid: syntax but it looks as if that will require a multi-part message and the image data still has to be base-64 encoded and sent as a separate section.
There's an example in the answer here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4312687/how-to-embed-images-in-email.
No idea how you would construct such an email in VFP tho :-{

Also saw an example in .NET which includes the image as an attachment and references that.
