Embedding an image in an email with PHP

I'm sending out Emails by an PHP-Server over a local smtp-server. This HTML-emails should contain images, that are supposed to be embedded. I already setup the Pear-Extensions Mail, Mail_Mime and Net_SMTP. All emails are send fine, but no images are attached to them.

I already found this Solution: PHP Attaching an image to an email, though I followed it step by step and the image still isn't attached to the email. I already tried attaching an image by $mime->addAttachment("/path/to/image/smile.gif", "image/gif");, but I'm still not recieving any attachements.

    $userGivenName = 'John';
    $userSurname = 'Doe';

    $crlf = "\r\n";
    $mime = new Mail_mime($crlf); 
    $cid = "image001.png";
    $mime->addHTMLImage("/filehost/img/emailLogo.png", "image/png", "", true, $cid);

    $mailtext = '
