How to delete an attachment in an email in Evolution?

Question

I would like to delete attachments from the email in the email client Evolution (at the moment 3.2.3, Ubuntu 12.04), so my the size of the IMAP-folders will not be bloated and can be reduced.

Answer 1

The feature is included in evolution version 3.x without any additional installation. But it took me a while to find out how I can do it. At least two ways to do it:
1. Right-click on the email with the attachment in the email list of one of your folders and you will find the "Remove Attachments" in the context menu.
2. Left-click on the email with the attachment in the mail list to mark it and find in the panel/main menu "Message" "Remove Attachments".

But unfortunately the most intuitive ways and where I looked for the command first does not work: Left-click context menu in the email itself and context menu of the attachment itself does not contain "remove attachments".
