Use case 2: post-processing camera images with ImageMagick

For some reason let's say we want smaller images, whether that's for web or e-mail use or whatever. Perhaps we just want to save on our upload bandwidth when we backup / publish our images. Anyway, we can tell incron to call ImageMagick on any newly-created photo, placing the smaller image under /media/mmc1/vga/ (which we've created manually beforehand)

Then we (optionally) trigger an upload of the VGA-resolution image when it arrives in the ImageMagick output dir (second line). Or we could do whatever else with it...if we install 'mailcmd' then we have a command-line approach to sending e-mail from the default account in modest.

It takes typically 12-15 seconds to shrink the photo, attach it to an e-mail and dump it in Modest's outbox for sending.
