Click the link to see image

image does not show due to this link (https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/proxy/hO1fKO-OzbNbCh9Ip6yMDq7EyvRtsvnwWUU6siZfCWnzEbuR1APyylsxtFFglTIoHOgxi40F_vgTxz6FQHXrwcQ=s0-d-e1-ft#https://fe25-210-56-2-6.in.ngrok.io/api/opened)

Email template Code:

Controller

 public function opened()
{
    header('Content-type:image/jpg');
    return file_get_contents(public_path('/images/user.jpg'));
}

You cannot embed external images for security reasons, you might include it in email and show it. Example of mail sent with PHPMailer + Laravel:

private function designaPatrimonial($mail){
   $mail->AddEmbeddedImage(base_path('public/mails/pic-finger-up.png'), 'finger');
   return '<img src="cid:finger">';
}

You have to embed the image via AddEmbeddedImage with a name in the second parameter of the function, then you call it from the html like src="cid:Name_of_your_image"

This will attach your image to the mail and show it where you call it but won't be as attached file in the mail.

You have more info here: embedding image in html email

I hope this help you!
