Description
I have two issues relating to using mailsave_to_image to create image nodes from images that are emailed in to Drupal.
1. How do I have the image show up in the teaser view of the image node?
2. How do I enable commenting for these nodes? Commenting is available for image nodes I manually create but not for image nodes created from emails.

I will need to come back to this later. When mailsave_to_image was written the image module was still in development. I just checked the image project page and the module is still only at alpha. As a result the interaction between mailsave and image can't be considered as more than "development" at the moment.
In principle the thumbnail generation should happen automatically, as it does under Drupal 5. In practice the methods in image might be changing so it might be that mailsave isn't quite talking to image correctly.
At the moment I don't really plan to do any further work on developing mailsave_to_image until image becomes stable - there is no guarantee that the code won't change again and undo any work!
I'm setting the status on this thread to postponed, pending finalisation if the image module.
