This is the part I don't understand.

Why are you going to email if the photo has been downloaded (saved)?

Maybe the picture is embedded in the email.

Maybe I have a solution to my own problem. I went to Picasa and right clicked on the last photo imported; hit "copy full path length", or something like that. Went to Email, right clicked photo I wanted to move, and hit "save as". Pasted the full path link into where it said "file name". Changed the photo name, at then end of the full path length, to the name for the new photo. Hit "save". Picasa ground endlessly, then finally put the photo where I wanted it. Looks like Google (who own Picasa) could make this easier.

I have had that problem also and my only found solution is to copy it and paste it into a word document. That will at least keep the picture for you until somebody can solve it.:)

Hmm.. odd that a photo program can't import photos.

Can you bypass P software and paste photo into one of its folders? Does P have a File dialogue which includes "open"?

2oldman, I downloaded the photo, hit "copy", went to Picasa and tried to "paste" into the location I wanted. There was no "paste" option in Picasa when I right clicked.

Any photo attached to email can be downloaded. Do that, copy/paste anywhere.

Robsouth, tried it. Right clicked on photo attached to Email and it did let me "copy". Went to Picasa, right clicked on folder I wanted to put photo into; it did not give "paste" as an option.

Right click the photo, chose copy. Right click picasa file, chose paste. Done

I don't know if you can do it directly, but certainly if you save the photo to your desktop, then it's easy to find.. then I bet you can put it into Picassa.
