Does anyone know of a Debian package for an image viewer program
that has e-mail support?

In other words, while viewing images, I could select an image and
send it via e-mail to a friend. Obviously there would have to be
settings for size and e-mail client in a config file.

Thanks
Kevin

I've never tried, but with the KDE apps, each object's menu has an
'actions' sub-menu and an 'open with'. I wonder if you could tweak
either of those to do what you want. You may want to check ou digiKam.

I haven't done drag-and-drop since OS/2 but I wonder if you can drag the
image out of a file manager and drop it on your email client.

The first is related to the individual software, the latter is probably
dependant on which (if any) desktop environment you are using; its
beyond a simple window manager.

Correct, that could be done. However, it is easier to simply click Location,
Send File from within Konqueror, which, in file manager mode, can use large
or small thumbnails of images, and works very well with the Gwenview
plugin/application.

I think F-spot, the photo manager for Gnome, has this functionality, but I do
not have it installed so I cannot confirm.

Picasa syncs with Gmail pretty easily, if you 1) use gmail and 2) don't mind
using closed source Picasa via Wine.
