No, it is not. If it were, then the next wish would be to make TB a full OS. Why
not, after all? The answer is simple: a program is to perform exactly the set of
functions it's designed for. TB is a MUA, NOT a scanner/archiver. When the
plugins support becomes available, you'll be able to call the external programs
that will do the trick. Actually, you kind of can right now. Make a batch file that
would call your scanner, then call the archiver (or an image conversion
program) against the result and put the resulting GIF or JPEG or ZIP to, say,
c:\documents\tobesent.gif, then make a quick template for TB having used the
%ATTACH macro, and that's all.
