hello

Its quite simple to add them in picasa, when you recives any images via attacments gmail offers a link called "Download all attachments" in your email, simply download all images in your Picasa configured folder and in Picasa there as an option to automatically search for new files in File Manager Tools and click on (your choice) analysis continuously or only once.

No, there is not auto transfer available between gmail and picasa, you have to manual transfer image attachments from your gmail account to you pc and then to picasa photo album.

Picasa doesn't physically store your image files, they are located on your hard disk. During installation, Picasa scanned your computer for image file types are compatible, then creats a thumbnail reference to them. You can determine which locations on your computer Picasa monitors for picture files using the Picasa Folder Manager. Click on Tools -> Folder Manager. You can change the status of files scanned by Picasa.

There are three settings you can choose for your picasa folder locations:

• "Scan Always": Picasa will access all compatible image types and will access all newly added photos. Picasa actively scans this folder for changes.
  
• "Scan Once": Picasa will access all compatible image types once. It will not detect new photos added to this folder.
  
• "Remove from Picasa": Picasa will not look in locations set to "Remove from Picasa" for photos.
