Sending Images from Mail to Aperture

Hey all,

I'm sure people have asked this, but I haven't found any satisfactory responses, so here we go again...

I want a simple way to send images I receive via email to Aperture rather than iPhoto.

How can I do this?

Is it simple?

If not, why haven't Apple sorted this out? Given even cameraphones are now snapping at 6 - 10 mpixels, images sent via email can no longer be considered 'amateur'.

Thanks

Sam
