Send email attachment inline - OSB

Question

Hello,
I am sending an email with an xml attachment to another system. The target system expects the email attachment to be in 'inline'.  Here is my configuration for this.
<con:attachment xmlns:con="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/context"> 
  <con:Content-Type>text/xml</con:Content-Type>
  <con:Content-Transfer-Encoding>7bit</con:Content-Transfer-Encoding>  
  <con:Content-Disposition>inline; filename=”MyXML”</con:Content-Disposition>
  <con:body>{$attachmentXML}</con:body> <!-- dynamically populated -->
  <con:body>
My problem is when the email reaches the target, the attachment is not displayed 'inline'. My understanding is with the above configuration 'Content-Disposition' as 'inline', the attachment should be displayed inside 'body' (without the 'paper clipping' image)
Please note: If I use a java class to publish with the above content disposition, the attachment is displayed 'inline'. So I am not worried about the target SMTP server and the target system.
Any help will be appreciated.
With Regards,
Ranjith

Did you select Outbound Request in Transport Header??
Please refer below sample code.
          <con2:route xmlns:con2="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/stages/publish/config">
            <con1:id>_ActionId-5670259997675832921-54115704.1426f7f029e.-7c5b</con1:id>
            <con2:service ref="ActiveITRoster/BusinessService/BS_MailService" xsi:type="ref:BusinessServiceRef" xmlns:ref="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/reference"/>
            <con2:outboundTransform>
              <con4:transport-headers copy-all="false" xmlns:con4="http://www.bea.com/wli/sb/stages/transform/config">
                <con1:id>_ActionId-5670259997675832921-54115704.1426f7f029e.-7c5a</con1:id>
                <con4:header-set>outbound-request</con4:header-set>
                <con4:header name="Content-Type" value="expression">
                  <con1:xqueryText>'text/html'</con1:xqueryText>
                </con4:header>
                <con4:header name="Subject" value="expression">
                  <con1:xqueryText>$emailSubject</con1:xqueryText>
                </con4:header>
                <con4:header name="To" value="expression">
                  <con1:xqueryText>$mailids</con1:xqueryText>
                </con4:header>
              </con4:transport-headers>
            </con2:outboundTransform>
          </con2:route>
You will find ws, email, http, file, ftp and few other modes of transport when you add a header.
Please select Content-Type in ws & To,Subject (select them depending on your requirement) in email.
Without using transport header, how will you pass the information in the mail?
How will you set the email parameters?
