TB Is currently missing one big feature: AUTOSAVE ATTACHMENTS TO...

But this wouldnt be nessesary if mail/attachments were saved in a more logical way.

I truely cant understand WHY all mails/attachments is saved into one gigantic packed/encoded file?? Sounds little like something Microsoft would do.. But I thought you would be better!

The best, and most logical, way I can think of is to save (SEPERATLY) each mail in ie <programdir>/<mailfolder>/<mailname-number-or-whatever> and save the attachments also seperatly in a folder of the users choice.

I get lots and lots of .pdf documents by mail, and I would like to be able to search for specific words, without having to know what file it is in.
