Put a local image in the body when sending an email

To send an email from the application I'm using MailMessage made available. Now I'm trying to put an image in the body of the email via html:

MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
SmtpClient SmtpCliente = new SmtpClient(server);
...
mail.IsBodyHtml = true;
mail.Body += "<br />Cumprimentos,<br />";
mail.Body += "<img src=\"D://MediaOleotorres/logoOleotorresAssinatura.png\" height=\"42\" width=\"42\">";

However, when you send the email, the image does not appear. Do I have to use an image that is available online?

EDIT: I've also tried to put the image as attached and then add it to the body, is it possible?

string attachmentPath = @"D:/MediaOleotorres/imagens/logoOleotorresAssinatura.png";
Attachment inline = new Attachment(attachmentPath);
inline.ContentDisposition.Inline = true;
inline.ContentDisposition.DispositionType = DispositionTypeNames.Inline;
inline.ContentType.MediaType = "image/png";
inline.ContentType.Name = Path.GetFileName(attachmentPath);

mail.Attachments.Add(inline);

c#

I have already found a solution, which consists of creating a new shortcut of the local image that you want to add to the body of the message and add the same to the body:

            var contentID = "Image";
            var inlineLogo = new Attachment(@"D://MediaOleotorres/logoOleotorresAssinatura.png/logoOleotorresAssinatura.png");
            inlineLogo.ContentId = contentID;
            inlineLogo.ContentDisposition.Inline = true;
            inlineLogo.ContentDisposition.DispositionType = DispositionTypeNames.Inline;
            mail.Attachments.Add(inlineLogo);
            mail.Body += "<br /><br /><img src=\"cid:" + contentID + "\" height=\"42\" width=\"42\"><br />";
