Dear All,

From a programmer's perspective, is there any difference between an
attachment to a plain text message vs. an attachment in a rich text message?
Is there a logical reason why attachments in RTF messages appear as icons
whereever the cursor was when they were inserted?

Yes, in case of an RTF message, an attachment can be inserted in a
particular place in the message body by setting the attachment's
PR_RENDERING_POSITION MAPI property. If it is set to -1, the attachment will
be shown outside of the message body, the same way as text and HTML messages
always work.
Note that HTML messages can have inline messages inserted in the message
body using the <img> tag with a specially formatted scr attribute pointing
to an image attachment.
