 I run Outlook under Windows XP.  When I attach photos the programs asks if I
want to shrink them to small (320 x 240) or medium (640 x 480).  No auxilliary
program is needed.

 After running them
 through IrfanView and resizing them to 640x480, I saved them with medium
compression and they wound up being 18k (95% filesize reduction) and 27k (93%
reduction) respectively.
