how to add an image in the MFMailComposer message body(not as attachment)

I want to add an image in the composer such that when i open the mail composer ,the image should be there in the message body. I do not want an attachment. And i also do not want to convert the image to base64.Is there any other way???

Thank you.

//To Append an attachment:

//Create a string with HTML formatting for the email body
NSMutableString *emailBody = [[NSMutableString alloc] initWithString:@"<html><body>"] ;
//Add some text to it however you want
[emailBody appendString:@"<p>Some email body text can go here</p>"];
//Pick an image to insert
//This example would come from the main bundle, but your source can be elsewhere
NSString *filePath = @"";/*you file path*/
//Convert the file into data
NSData *attachmentData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:filePath];
//Create a base64 string representation of the data using NSData+Base64
NSString *base64String = [attachmentData base64EncodedString];
//Add the encoded string to the emailBody string
//Don't forget the "<b>" tags are required, the "<p>" tags are optional
[emailBody appendString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"<p><b><img src='data:image/png;base64,%@'>  </b></p>",base64String]];
//You could repeat here with more text or images, otherwise
//close the HTML formatting
[emailBody appendString:@"</body></html>"];
NSLog(@"%@",emailBody);

//Create the mail composer window
MFMailComposeViewController *email = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];
email.mailComposeDelegate = self;
[email setSubject:@"My Inline Document"];
[email setMessageBody:emailBody isHTML:YES];

[self presentModalViewController:email animated:YES];
[email release];
[emailBody release];
