This manual page was written for the Debian™ distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. **claws-mail-attach-remover** is a plugin (loadable module) for the *Claws Mail* mailer. Enables the removal of all attachments from the selected message. When doing right-click a message on message list, choose the “Remove attachments” option from the displayed submenu. ## USAGE Before using a plugin you must instruct *Claws Mail* to load it on startup. For this you must go “Configuration” menu on main window toolbar, open “Plugins...” dialog, click on the “Load plugin...” button and select the plugin file, named **att\_remover.so**, and press the “Open” button. ## CAVEATS Currently there is no way you can select individual attachments for removal. It's all or nothing. ## SEE ALSO [**claws-mail**(1)](/claws-mail/1.md), [**claws-mail-extra-plugins**(7)](/claws-mail-extra-plugins/7.md). ## AUTHORS - Colin Leroy \ Wrote the **claws-mail-attach-remover** plugin. - Ricardo Mones \ Wrote this manpage for the Debian™ system. ## COPYRIGHT Copyright © 2006-2020 Ricardo Mones This manual page was written for the Debian system (but may be used by others).
