You know what detach does now (would've been easy enough to try on a test email), as an FYI when you delete an attachment, the original email will show that an attachment was deleted by you. Example: ==== Deleted: abiword1.odt You deleted an attachment from this message. The original MIME headers for the attachment were: Content-Type: application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text; name="abiword1.odt" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="abiword1.odt" ==== That way, later on you won't think that SeaMonkey borked your attachement. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
