Hi James, What browser are you using? You may have been bit by a bug that's been fixed since RC2, if using IE. That's a good reason to downgrade (or use our nightlies).
E-mail should work if that option is disabled. As for the PIL issue, what system is this installed on? Most Linux distros provide a packaged version of PIL that handle all the image formats you'd care about. You probably want to just install that. On Ubuntu/Debian, this is "python-imaging".
