Re: Deleting Attachments from Index View
The IMAP FETCH command allegedly supports retrieving individual sections of a message, including the headers and parsed sections of the body based on MIME parts. I have no idea what the support for this feature is like. -- jh...@alum.mit.edu John Hawkinson

Good point. In that case, the delete-entry command in the attachment menu context could technically be called a modify-body command. I am not familiar with IMAP but might have surmised it provided commands for simply deleting attachments. That is probably not the case. Thank you for the helpful responses.

I did a test with a mail with a 5 MB attachment over IMAPS. The view-attachments downloads the attachments before presenting the overview. I now even think, there is no other way, because the attachments are in a sequence in the mail body, separated by some describing head lines, and mutt must read the full body to present them. matthias -- Matthias Apitz, ✉ g...@unixarea.de, http://www.unixarea.de/ +49-176-38902045 Public GnuPG key: http://www.unixarea.de/key.pub ¡Con Cuba no te metas! «» Don't mess with Cuba! «» Leg Dich nicht mit Kuba an! http://www.cubadebate.cu/noticias/2020/12/25/en-video-con-cuba-no-te-metas/
Re: Deleting Attachments from Index View
Thank you for the idea. Unfortunately, testing with a bandwidth monitor (nethogs) shows that mutt downloads all attachments upon executing view-attachments from the index view. Can anyone confirm this? By the way, I connect by executing change-folder with the following target: imaps://sunnycemet...@gmail.com@imap.gmail.com/INBOX

I was wondering if there is an easy way to delete attachments from
postponed messages. For email which you receive the procedure is
clear ('v' and afterwards 'd'). In the postponed message menu
the d-key is reserved for descriptions.
try shiftd

At Wed, Feb 20 2002 [10:37 +0100], René Clerc aroused my curiosity with: Hi all, Hello :-) IIRC, it was possible in mutt to delete an atachment from a message, but leave the message itself intact. I just tried to do this with my mutt (1.3.25), but it didn't seem to work anymore. It doesn't seem to work when dgc's attachment patch is applied.
