290516 - can't delete attachements in received mail

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 2920

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, enhancement)

Description

[Steve Kelem]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050225 Firefox/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird version 1.0 (20041206)

I've received email containing instructions (text) and (large) attachments.  I'd
like to keep the email, but delete the attachments (usually after saving the
attachment somewhere).  I don't need to keep the attachment in the email.  In
fact, I'm running out of disk space!

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Receive email with attachment(s).
2. Search for an option to delete the attachment(s).
3. File bug.

Actual Results:  
Couldn't find an option to delete attachments.

Expected Results:  
Everything I said: give an option to delete the attachment.
Double-check that that's what I really want to do.
Ask me what I'll do if Mozilla really deletes the file.
