How? Do you know how a filesystem knows how many names a file has got?
It has a reference counter. In TB case it could be a simple hash. I
personally dislike TB's habit to duplicate attachments when they're
the same files and attached to different letters... It also could be
solved and it could save much diskspace, at least in my case, it would
save up to 50% of the mailbox size.
