i don't use Mail a lot, but i am running Tiger, so i took a few 
minutes for some experiments; the only way i was able to get Mail 
to turn an attached PDF into a JPEG was to change the Image Size: 
setting at the lower right of the composition window to Small or 
Medium (Large might have done it too, if my test PDF hadn't been 
pretty small already)

this setting doesn't seem to be sticky, and i don't see a way to 
control that in the prefs
