Ghmm, I tried to load this message into Outlook Express and into
Thunderbird and seems like you are right. Both clients started to consume
>300Mb of virtual memory.

However when I tried to open the same image in IrfanView it consumed
~104Mb. Does this mean that most email programs (including GD library)
just loads raw code into memory without any optimizations? I wonder what
could be done in such cases. Try to hack GD library to limit picture
size?

P.S. I also noticed that _getHordeImageObj() is called twice for every
image attachment. Could this also be the problem?
