What mail client do you use?

If it archives the post/mail as a single text file,
you can use

    $ ls -b -l FILE

or

    $ wc -c FILE

to count the bytes/chars, including the headers.

As for the attachment you can do the same (ls -bl) on
the file and then add the number of bytes to that of
the text file.
