I used to delete attachments the same way before I started using the Shred Messages, and Trash Messages and Attachments Apple Scripts thru Emailer's Mail Actions.
I simply put an alias of the Downloads Folder into the Systems Apple Menu Items Folder, so I could instantly select that from the always present Apple Menu, then select and command delete all, or some of the attachments it shows, rather than have to go to the desktop, locate my Communications folder, locate Emailer folder thru there, then double click to open the actual downloads folder. Saved me a number of steps this way. Still comes in handy occasionally. There are other ways am not familiar with, that others mentioned.
