KMail Power Tools
-----------------

KMail Power Tools is meant to be a suite of enhancements to KMail and may be other mail user agents.

It is currently composed of only one (perl) script that acts as a filter (take input from stdin, outputs the modified mail to stdout), adds dialog boxes to kmail, and allows the user to:

    * remove all attachments from an email (no user interaction),
    * remove selectively attachments, after asking the user,
    * detach (i.e. save then remove) any attachment to a directory chosen by the user,

hence reducing the size of your mailbox, while allowing you to backup important attached files.

All these actions are logged within a sentence in the mail body, called the disclaimer.

Note: kmailpt is also able to remove/detach attachments from gpg encrypted emails, and to store these emails decrypted.

See INSTALL for the installation procedure.
