If doing some one-off housekeeping is urgent for you, a fairly simple
workaround would be to use a different e-mail client to delete the
offending attachments.  You can install it just for this purpose and
then uninstall it once you're done.  IIRC KMail is able to delete
attachments from signed e-mails; probably there are other clients which
also have this functionality.
