DO NOT re-request blocking flags that have already been denied unless significant new information is available about its severity (e.g. a crash that turns out to be exploitable). That a missing feature happens to annoy you personally is not significant. As far as I know, this feature has *never* existed since the Netscape days, so it's apparently not even as big a deal as you think it is.

I wonder if a Eudora-like method is better - detaching attachments and keeping them in the folder on disk that contains the mail account...of course then if you edit the attachment you no longer have the original available.
