Is there a way to delete attachments from sent mail automatically? I already have the attachments saved in my hard drive and don't need it also saved in my emails. Currently I have to do this manually for each email.

Preferably, the attachment would actually be automatically detached and replaced by a link to the location of the file in my hard drive where I originally attached the file from.

The FiltaQuilla add-on adds Detach Attachments To to the filter actions, so you could create a filter and run it manually on the Sent folder (filters run automatically only on the Inbox). I haven't tested this.

Thanks, I'll try that
