    It's Content-Id which I believe used while sending an image as an attachment to a mail.

      When attaching an image to a MIME multipart mail (either multipart/related or multipart/mixed), you can give the image a Content-Id header with an arbitrary cid value.

      In the HTML body of your mail, you can then reference those cids again to display images.

        AFAIK should the content id be globally unique, some mail clients use it for caching.

        It's a good idea to prepend a unique mail id
