Hi!

I have question about mails which have attachments - How to remove only
attachments from mail without deleting mail. If I switch to attachment view I
can delete particular attachment using "D" key (D mark show on left side of this
attachment), but I cant delete this attachments physically. What I should do in
this case? If its really possible remove this attachments from mail?

Regards

Piotr

Once you have deleted the attachment, save the message again. I ussually
save it in a different directory, and then delete the origional, thrn save
the new message back in the directory I want.

Thanks! Its works, but for me is little strange, because pine should have
option/key which which should privide this service - removing attachments from
mails.

Sure no problem. I am also very new to pine, and that was one of the first
things I wanted to know ;-) Maybe there should be an option for that, but
hey, this way works too, and it's not like I have to do it every day :-)

You can leave out the middle step by deleting the attachments, then saving
the message in the same folder.  There is no need to save it to a
different folder, then back to the original.

I must say, however, that an "Expunge attachments" command would be ideal.
