usually do, to use the system.
That's an interesting thought. I still need to cover the situation
where the remote sender cannot send a large attachment (because of their
site policy), but that is likely to be a smaller set of users.
But then what would happen if the message is sent to multiple
recipients, should we make different directories for each recipient?
If not then the "delete" button would delete it for every recipient.
Multiple recipients could get individual hardlinks to the actual file,
and the last one to click delete would actually delete the file.
However, this has the disadvantage that I have to serialize the e-mail
itself (split out all of the recipients), which is non-trivial (I've
already attempted this for a different purpose).
