NOTES:
This tag works on all mail clients, except when the user has image loading switched off.
ALWAYS refer to an e-mailed image by its absolute URL!
It's good practice to always specify the width, height, border, and alt/title attributes when defining
an image, whether you're designing Web pages or e-mail. Rendering finishes QUICKER when these
attributes are defined for all images, not to mention providing information for your readers who have
switched off incoming images.
