You can drag and drop, or do a "Save attachment as" and save the photos to the desktop, or another folder, then drag the resulting photos over the iPhoto icon (even if it isn't open), or into it's library and it will start importing. That being said, if you are in mail, you can just drag the photos to iPhoto, or the iPhoto icon.

Or a cool way is, use mails slide show, pause the pictures, pick the icon on the tool bar to add to iPhotos, watch them suck into the corner, then when you finished the slide show the ones you selected are imported into iPhoto, love it, such a cool feature

But if you don't want them in iPhoto, yes drag them to the desktop or use save as button above the email
