Re: Removing attachments from incoming Mail message

2011-04-29 Thread Steven Knowles
Thanks James. However I don't need to save the attachment, and even if I did 
save the attachment, it does not delete that attachment from the message, which 
is what I want to do.

Yes, I can redirect, or re-send, or forward the message, and delete individual 
attachments, however this doesn't do what I want to do, ie. delete selected 
attachments from the message which is sitting in my inbox.

Cheers, Steven

 if you need to remove for keeping the attachement then, you can just click

 if you forward then just prepare the letter  you should see the 
 attachements, place the cursor behind (after the selected one) then hit 
 delete, that should remove the attachement within the forwarded letter

Removing attachments from incoming Mail message

2011-04-28 Thread Steven Knowles

This is a long shot, I can't see any way of doing it but maybe there is.

I'm using Apple's Mail 4.5 (on OSX 10.6.7).

If an incoming message has attachments, those attachments can be removed from 
the message by highlighting the message, then via menus Message  Remove 
Attachments.

However, if there are multiple attachments to a message, and I want to delete 
only one or some of the attachments, Mail doesn't appear to provide this 
option. It's all or nothing.

Other than redirecting / re-sending the message, and removing an attachment 
that way, which is not ideal because it has side effects, does anybody know of 
a way to delete selected attachments,  not all?

Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties 
disappear and obstacles vanish.
