Hello, I've tried various times to delete attachments from various emails in my gmail from Thunderbird. It deletes the attachment and it looks good. I then give it several hours to sync to gmail. But later, the email comes back in Thunderbird with the attachment and nothing changes. It does not save any space in gmail. I've also tried waiting several days. When I check gmail the email is still there with the attachment.

I have tried different gmail accounts, and also tried the "detach" and the "delete" function. Both do not sync into my gmail.

Basically Gmail does not support removing attachments. AS IMAP always considers the server to be canonical what you are trying to do is not going to work.

I have this issue too, but I thought Thunderbird was able to somehow overcome this. I actually installed TB for this reason alone, after reading a recent article on Medium: https://medium.com/@mrodz/gmail-out-of-space-delete-the-attachments-not-the-emails-d6ea01bebd5e

The writer seems to have had success with this method, but I'm having the same problem as the OP . Any thoughts?

Anyone found a solution for this? I also got here following the blog post, but in reality all it did was create a DUPLICATE email with the attachment deleted. So ... it does not save any space.
