CSS: When to use max-height / max-width on images?

When does it make sense to use max-height or max-width on an image?

Does it help if I don't specify the actual dimensions of the image because I don't know it.

It makes sense when you have images of unknown width (for example, user uploaded content) that you do not want to exceed a certain area.

If I remember correctly, the property is not supported by IE6. It is however by IE7: Source

it also a good practice to hold the size of an image list that contains landscape and portrait format
