First, let me say that, if I was in your position, I would try to strongly 
discourage them from implementing this "feature." It's generally considered 
very bad form, and almost certainly will increase the odds of your mail 
getting filtered as spam. That said, I'm assuming you've already tried that 
tack, and they have insisted on it.

It looks like AlterMIME[1] will do what you want. It's designed to 
automatically add disclaimers to email, but I don't see why it wouldn't work 
for images, too. AlterMIME is in the universe repo as altermime. There is a 
decent howto[2] available on the net for using it as a postfix filter. It is 
also included in the docs for the package.
