anyone know of a script to put on a site that allows users to upload an image/s then those images are emailed to me?

Good question Matte,
I have been looking for the same thing, or one that will let a visitor upload directly to the site.

I have it in two halves
uses php and mysql on a unix box, (or any box with a mail server and a scheduler)
EDIT:
logic:
file is uploaed and resized if necessary.
file is renamed to avoid duplicate filenames
name and locatoions can be stored in a db
I also have a mail queue function that periodically checks a db fro emails and mails out the content (up to x mails every y minutes) - this throttles the process and will go some way to preventing DoS attacks
the idea would be to have the upload script populate the mail db (as well?)
you could be emailed plain text link or html with link to image or html with embedded image
