Thank you for the report.
These look relevant:
 https://discourse.gnome.org/t/evolution-embed-images-in-email-with-markdown-as-html/27244
 https://evolution-932a11.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/help/oc/mail-displaying-images-in-html.html

Please look at them to see whether your case is covered therein.
Perhaps you could also post the message source code relating to an image that you refer to (not the entire message), to identify explicitly what syntax is failing.
TIA

Henry please test if the evolution in core/updates_testing fix your issue

If not perhaps need to be updated to version 3.49.3
