java - How to stop embedded images in email being displayed as attachments by GMail?

I am sending HTML emails with embedded images (as attachments) and the images display as expected in GMail. However they also show up as attachments under the email. Does anyone know how to avoid this i.e. I want them in the email only and not listed as attachments. I have used "Content-Disposition: inline". I am using Spring and JavaMail.

Here is what my mails end up like. Can anyone see whats wrong?

It is possible to get such a mail body out of GMail by following these steps:

  1. enable in Gmail Labs "Inserting images by Kent T"
  2. write an mail and embed an image into the mail
  3. send the mail to yourself
  4. open the mail. On the upper right corner, press the picture with the arrow down (right near Reply) and press "Show original". There you will find an example of such a mail.

I did this and got following result, where the image is not listed as attachement. Maybe this mail body helps you to create a proper mail with Spring and JavaMail:
