The <a href="http://drupal.org/project/mailsave">Mailsave</a> module has finally been updated for <a href="http://drupal.org/">Drupal 6</a>, and so I can now submit attachments with email posts. The one shortcoming is that files are simply added to posts as normal attachments, and so images aren't automatically displayed. I therefore have to manually insert images in the body of the post, but I actually prefer this since it's a simpler system and gives me more control.</p>

<p>I also needed a way of resizing images on my <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_E70">phone</a> since they are too big. I found the <a href="http://europe.nokia.com/A4164022?url=http://nds1.nokia.com/phones/files/software/Nokia_3250_ImageEditor.SIS">Nokia Image Editor</a><sup id="fnref:1"><a href="#fn:1" rel="footnote">1</a></sup> which seems to work fairly well, although it only allows resizing to specific resolutions.</p>
