the answers you received were all correct. You really don't need any more than 3-4Mpix. However- few cameras sold today are less than 5Mp, with 6-8Mp being the norm, and some 10Mp cameras are out there.
The key here is that more pixels aren't always better. Really- the size of the detector is more important than the number of dots on it, as when the dots get small- two problems come into play. 1. image noise. 2. optical diffraction effects. So- more is not always better.
I suggest checking out a few different digicam styles- and see what you like. a sub compact? a regular? an ultra-zoom or- a DSLR. Personally- I like cameras that do well in low light conditions- like indoors (such as the Fuji F20, F31fd, S6000) or cameras with 28mm wide angle lenses- rather than the more typical 37mm. Also- many cameras have some type of optical image stabilization- which is a nice feature.
so- don't just look at the number of pixels. It will be far more important to you to get the camera that, for instance, has an LCD that you can see in the sunlight.

resizing them for e-mailing is a pretty simple task (usually takes me less than 2mins a pic) if you've got the software to edit pictures.

The higher the amount of megapixels, the better quality of the picture. I have 10 Million megapixel camera that takes brilliant photos and is really easy to use. Its the Casio EXLIM Z1000. It has so many features as well as a really high amount of megapixels - you can take photos in cartoon mode, black and white, and can store small video clips. It comes with all accessories to connect straight up to the computer so it will be easy to email the photos.

Just send the picture by email, then you don't need more than 1Mega pixels.
If you need to be able to print out at 8"x10" then you need 6Meaga pixels.
Hope that helps.

I would say 4-5 then. The only reason to go larger is for the ability to enlarge the picture larger than 8X10 without significant reduction in picture quality.

I would recommend a minimum of at least 4-5 million pixels. Anything less and you will be compromising picture quality.

You really don't need more than 3 megapixels unless you want to make huge blowups. As it is, a 3 megapixel picture at highest resolution will be much too large for emailing. You'll need to downsize it.
