This one bites me all the time too. Maybe a "Save All Attachments To
Desktop" button?
Another thing that bugs me is how it renames attachments that have the
same name of previous attachments.
Example, when half our customer send in attachments called "quote.pdf",
the attachment name is changed by adding a "space" and a number.
It just seems non-kosher to be *altering* the incoming message.

I hate this too. I always know when I am getting a large attachment
because the whole computer locks up.
It would be nice if the indexing were more of a background process
that runs when idle.
