Dear Fellow Apple Acolytes
Does anyone know if this long running issue has been resolved please?
Remove Mail Attachment not working in Catalina
I guess Apple wants people to have bloated email data for obvious storage plan reasons.
However much I love Apple products, eventually persistent fundamental failures in a user experience overcome patient faithful admiration.
Yours hopefully

Thanks, I am pretty knowledgeable about tech, OSX upgrading, iPhones, MacBooks old & new, iPads etc. and have read the guidance you kindly sent a link too, but some time ago now.
Selecting one email or many (there are 13,000 in my archive) and clicking remove attachment does not remove the attachment(s) even if I leave it overnight.
I have restarted the laptop (MacOS 10.15.7, MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2013) OK old like me but still functional tried all the resetting things, accessed preferences in Mail, checked the permissions with the Library Mail folder, deleted and created new email accounts but "Remove attachment" still does not work. What a waste of time.
I don't like using Outlook for Mac but I guess I may have to return to that.
Best Simon
Guess, lesson learned. Why has one what until 13K emails with file attachments needs to be removed all at once.
