As email is a text only medium surely any image is by definition an attachment ?

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a program that imports msg files and uses PR_HASATTACH to determine if there are attachments. (I need to set a boolean in a table if there are attachments or not.)<br />
<br />
The problem is that if there is an embedded image (like a logo), that property is set to true. &nbsp;Is there a way to determine the difference between embedded images and true attachments to the message?<br />
<br />
I've also looked at PR_MESSAGE_ATTACHMENTS and that is also populated with embedded images/items, so that doesn't help me either.

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.
