Converting Relative URLS
Relative references are not suitable for emails because the absolute path will be of the URL where the email is opened, not where the image is stored.
How does it happen?
This situation typically occurs when attempting to transform website HTML into email HTML. Many websites favor using relative paths, as they are either directly serving images or linking to content located in a different section of the website. This approach, while effective for websites, encounters issues when applied to email HTML due to the differing nature of resource linking in emails.
