Hi all,

IIRC, it was possible in mutt to delete an atachment from a message,
but leave the message itself intact. I just tried to do this with my
mutt (1.3.25), but it didn't seem to work anymore.

What I did was:
'v'iew attachments
'd'elete attachment
'q'uit to index
(by now, a small 'd' appears in front of the message)
'$'ynchronize the mailbox
or even
'q'uit mutt

After these actions, mutt still shows the enormous size of the
message, and the "old" number of attachments (using dgc's attachment
counting patch). A quick check reveiled that the attachment was _not_
deleted from the message.

Before I flea this: is this a known issue?

TIA.
