It's great to archive emails, too. You can forget them and search them and have an action trail in them.
Do you want to archive all the files, the kilo-, mega-, giga-, tera-, peta-, exa- and what-not-bytes, though? What, especially, about files that appear multiple times in various threads and messages, or photos attached to emails where you want to keep the message, but the photos already live happily where you keep images?
In PocoMail, you can, thankfully, delete the attachments and keep the emails.
