I tried to "clean" some (actually many) of my e-mails (I wanted to keep
the text while reducing the file size by deleting the attachments) and
this still seems to be a big problem after 16 years (!)... as I use TB
in a corporate environment, many of the e-mails are signed and thus they
become blank when deleting the attachment (the text ist still there when
exporting to .eml and using some text editor to read them, but alas,
that's not the way to read an archived email :)...

Is there a possibility that somebody fixes this and somehow makes it possible 
that the text is still readable and - as suggested before - a message appears 
with something like "The digital signature has been removed from this message 
because the attachment
was removed, thus altering the e-mail."?
