That's going to be costly for mails with very large attachments. > storing all relevant information into the properties of this link ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ By "relevant information" presumably you mean the mail's subject, sender, recipients, message-id and so on? In which case the mail (header, at least) has to be parsed at some point, no? > those properties being immediately reusable by a template.
