How to Import Email Photo Attachments to iPhoto
Apple's iPhoto software provides users with photo-editing and photo-management options, letting you adjust margins, brightness, contrast and more. This program, the default image editor on Macs, prompts users with one-click import options when your Mac detects a connected camera or SD card. If you want to import photos from emails rather than connected devices, the process is not automatic, but it is still fairly straightforward.
