Hi Wikus,
I use Thunderbird instead of Evolution, it allows you to right-click
and save inline images.

As a bonus tip, you can setup a encrypted Private directory and store
all your email and account details in there, securing it in case of PC
theft.

See section 3 under https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
