Background Images

[p9142]

I am trying to place background images in a newsletter, but it seems that zimbra strips it out no matter which method I try. I have used inline styles

(style="background-image:url(http://www.whateverimage.com/image.jpg)">

, the background property of tables, and just setting a background for the body. No matter what I do, it gets stripped out and looks like this once I send the email and it is received by someone with zimbra:

(style="background-image: none;"

I've got the same problem - didn't find any information concerning that issue yet

How is the email being generated ? Could you expand please on exactly what you are doing ?

[Shimmy]

I've got some div elements in my HTML mail with a background image definition in the style attr. - when receiving the mail, it looks like that: style="background-image:none; ..."

Would you be able to post a example so that I can run through my ZCS installation ? Have you checked /var/log/zimbra.log to see whether Amavis is stripping it out ?

[Shimmy]

I can mail you an example if you give me your email address

I'd rather suspect the client, as I did try to view the mail in other clients and it did show the background images - so there wasn't any stripping from amavis happening there

You could also just write yourself an HTML email with some tag containing a background-image style definition
