I don't have the Droid, but I would imagine you would long press on the picture and select save from the menu.

Long pressing on the image while in the message (not after viewing the picture) should bring up a list of options, the first of which should be "Copy attached to SD card".

Let us all know if this is not the case and if you find a solution.

Good luck.

I couldn't figure this out last night but the long press on the picture does let you save the image to the sd card.

I'm still getting the hang of using android but I'm loving it so far.
