GMail does not show inline images (cid), I send with System.Net.Mail

When I send an email via Outlook or Gmail to a gmail email address, I can add inline images that appear directly in the gmail web interface:

Full work email: Work with raw email .

However, when I send such a message through System.Net.Mailfrom .NET, it does not work in the gmail web interface, but any other email client (Outlook, iphone, etc.):
