Comment:

 Bump.  Sometimes I'll get emails with large (MBs) of attachments.  Once I
 verify the PGP signature and save the attachments to disk, I don't need
 them in my inbox any more.  However, I do want to keep the record
 that/when they emailed, and any text they included in the body.

 I understand that deleting attachments from a signed email would break the
 signature.  Ideally mutt would re-sign the message to myself with my own
 key.

 Similarly if the email were encrypted, Mutt can't just slice some bits out
 of it; it wouldn't decrypt any more.  So instead, Mutt would have to call
 gpg to re-encrypt the content that was preserved.
