You can use a data: url as the src of the image: [stackoverflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1207190/embedding-base64-images) – Adder Aug 09 '17 at 14:36

1Like you have to transform the image data to base64 encoding and paste this as part of the url in img tag. – Adder Aug 09 '17 at 14:41

Basically you need to read the contents of the image and transfer them to data uri which you can "inline" into the html like this:
$image_data=file_get_contents("some_image.jpg");
$encoded=base64_encode($image_data);
echo "<img src='data:image/jpeg;base64,{$encoded}'>";
Of course you will not echo the image tag, you just ineed to put it into the email with your preferred mailer client.

Using base64 may work in some email clients, but it is not supported by some major email clients: https://www.caniemail.com/features/image-base64/ – LaVomit Jul 05 '22 at 07:25
