Auto-Thumbnailing for attached pictures.

In 1.1 (hidden) and in 1.2 (no longer hidden) of dasBlog, you can enable a feature for Mail-To-Weblog that will automatically turn attached pictures (not embedded pictures) into thumbnails in the post and you can also control the maximum height for the thumbnails. The relevant settings in site.config for 1.1 are

<Pop3InlineAttachedPictures>true</Pop3InlineAttachedPictures>
<Pop3InlinedAttachedPicturesThumbHeight>200</Pop3InlinedAttachedPicturesThumbHeight>

In 1.2 the config settings are the same, but I added them to the config page. Here's an example of how it comes out:

Nice feature. Must of missed that one when I was looking through the code. Would be nice if you made the thumbnail itself a link to the full picture.

This is an awesome feature. Thanks so much for doing this. I've been looking for a good way to integrate family photos in our weblog. Keep up the good work.
