Outlook Express (Remove attachment)

2002-11-20 by ObliviƤn | Bacteria AS

Hi,

I know this probably isn't the proper forum to ask this, but I try anyway...
;)

Does anyone know how to remove attachments from e-mails in Outlook Express?
My mailbox get's incredibly large 'cause I'm not able to remove attachments
from mails. The only solution I find is to delete the whole message, but
then again I'd like to keep all in/outgoing messages for future references.
Earlier I used Eudora and then it was no problem since it saved all
attachments in a separate folder.

With Outlook this isn't a problem since you have an option to remove any
attachments...

(...and no, I am not particularely interested in changing e-mail client).

Any suggestions appreciated!

Regards,

Obi

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
