I found the signature option for Geary and I tried making a signature with an image. Referring to a file on my pc doens't work. When i paste the data-url from the image in the src box, it shows the image correct, but when I send the mail, the receiver gets the error 'filename of attachment not set' or equivalent depending on email client. Anyone an idea how to fix this?

Kind regards

There currently isn't any support including attached images in signatures, but there is an open bug requesting this and it's something that we would like to add support for in the future.

I would be surprised if using a external URL or a data URLs for the image source (i.e. <img src="https://..."/>, or <img src="data:..."/>) don't work, however. If not, please file a bug and we'll look into it.

(Edited to clarify the difference between external and attached)

  • An external URL does work, however users get a security alert and the pictures are blocked by default. The data URL does work and I see the images, however when they arrive the receiver gets the error no filename is set of the attachment. I'll file the bug, thanks for your response – Brent Thierens Oct 26 '17 at 07:59

I added <img src="data:...."/> in ~/.config/geary/account_01/geary.ini .

In this file you can edit raw HTML, otherwise it will be escaped if you do it using geary UI.
