It is including the encoded image in the email, but will not display it. All I get is a placeholder. I know about the libraries, but it just feels like I am sooooo close :)
It is an html email, with an attachment, and the inline image is just a banner at the top. Attachments are working properly.
<?php
date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');
$heading_s_date = date("F j, Y",strtotime($start_date)); //to get format 2018-11-31 only
$heading_e_date = date("F j, Y",strtotime($end_date)); //to get format 2018-11-31 only
$subject = 'Account Updater Report for: ' . $merchant_name . '--' . $start_date . ' to ' . $end_date;;
$random_hash = md5(date('r', time()));
$headers = "From: customerservice@calligraphydallas.com\r\nReply-To: customerservice@forte.net";
$headers .= "\r\nContent-Type: multipart/html; boundary=\"PHP-mixed-".$random_hash."\"";
$image = 'banner010.jpg';
$attachment = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($filename)));
$inline = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($image)));
ob_start();
?>
This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

Any help would be appreciated.
Here is what works referencing the image with a URL:
<?php
date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');
$heading_s_date = date("F j, Y",strtotime($start_date));
$heading_e_date = date("F j, Y",strtotime($end_date));
$subject = 'Account Updater Report for: ' . $merchant_name . '--' . $start_date . ' to ' . $end_date;;
$random_hash = md5(date('r', time()));
$headers = "From: customerservice@calligraphydallas.com\r\nReply-To: customerservice@forte.net";
$headers .= "\r\nContent-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=\"PHP-mixed-".$random_hash."\"";
$attachment = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents($filename)));
ob_start();
?>
--PHP-mixed-<?php echo $random_hash; ?>
