make sure you save all images as TIFF ;)
Outlook Express itself will not do this for you (to my knowledge anyway), but you can get lots of other programs that will let you re-save an image "for the web" so to speak. Photoshop elements offers this function, as do other free programs like irfanview:

You might also try the Mihov Image Resizer (put it in your search engine). Does a a similar job to Irfanview. If you resize your images before emailing them there will never be a problem for the recipient.
If you do however want to send a large file or a few large files to someone via email, and don't want their inbox to become blocked with your files, you can send the files via a service like sendover:
http://sendover.com/

This will upload your picture to their servers, and then they'll send your friend a link to the file you uploaded to their servers. So the file itself is not in their inbox, just a link to it, and hence their inbox will not be filled up with your pictures.
