From time to time, you want to keep an message where someone has mailed
you a file, but don't want the file wasting hard drive space. It'd be
nice to be able to simply remove the attachment without a palaver.
I have used that feature successfully, but have also found it to be
buggy. The first time I noticed the option was with a mail that had a
very large attachment (not sure just how big tho). I tried the option a
number of times and nothing happened. Finally gave up on that one and
just deleted the mail. On others I have found it to work as expected.
