CFMAIL to send web page/image with image map

I can email my web page, with the image and embedded image map, by doing "File"/"Send"/"Page by e-mail" within the browser. It creates an email with the image and hyperlink-map and works very nicely. Page is https://www.health-pact.com/Email_02Nov08.htm

How do I create the same web page/graphic in my source code and use CFMAIL to send the content (jpg and image map) just like I can do from my browser?

Send an HTML email and make the image source an absolute path, like this:

<img src="https://www.health-pact.com/images/Email1.jpg" border="0"
usemap="#Slide2" />

That was the first thing I tried, but the email showed up with an image placeholder. I started trying different absolute and relative paths to no avail. Then I tried CFMAILPARAM which got the image to show up, but as an attachment, even though I specified "inline".

I thought I might have a directory permissions issue, but it is in the root of my web site.

This seems to be such a simple task to accomplish; I must be doing something really stupid or overlooking something very basic.

OK, I am making progress. It seems that running the cfmail page from my testing server is giving me problems. If I upload the page and image to my production server, it finds the image and displays it in the email.
