What I really need is a way to delete images from existing received emails to save disk space. Doing it manually takes hours.

Me too - I also need is a tool that strips inline images from stored messages. Suppose you manage to change the first "Content-Type: multipart/related;" declarative to "Content-Type: multipart/mixed;" then all inline images become "Attachments" which I then can "Detach" or "Delete". Yes, I can and have to do it occasionally using Notepad++. That simple edit changeing "related" to "mixed" by hand is a tedious procedure...

Nice! However, only to strip images from messages being composed.

Very useful. I still have to make the habit of pressing Strip images when I compose my replies. Otherwise the pictures in the reply chain accumulate and often take several megabytes. One little issue, the button icon is invisible (black) in dark mode. I use DeepDark instead the dark theme, but I think the problem is the same.

Well shoot! I absolutely LOVE this plugin. At first I was a bit whiney, but it really grew on me within a short time. I get emails from people all the time that clutter them with images throughout long chains. I enjoyed being able to hit reply, hit strip images, and then write my stuff and send (thus not expanding the size of my user profile with needed images). I do hope this gets re-written to work with TB 78+ :)

Nice idea! But it appears only to strip images from messages being composed. That limits its ability to reduce mailbox size. (What I need is a tool that strips inline images from stored messages.)

This would be a very useful AddOn, but I cannot find the "strip" button.

Honestly...I would have preferred to add the button automatically. But I couldn't figure out how to do it in the amount of time available to me at that point.

To add the button you
- create a new mail
- in the compose window, right click a blank part of the toolbar and from the context menu select "Customize..."
- in the "Customize Toolbar" dialog that appears, find the "strip images" button and drag it to the toolbar
