I’d love for this to work. I don’t see any reason why we couldn’t make it work (it just requires that we delete the file from external storage only after _all_ references to it are shredded).

We figured better to ship the useful feature rather than wait for the next major release cycle to refine and perfect it. :)

I encourage you to test them again, as we did completely reimplement the mailgate using a better design. In particular failure handling has been improved, so I wouldn’t be surprised if either of those tickets were fixed.

Agreed! I made a ticket for this for you: https://issues.bestpractical.com/Ticket/Display.html?id=31457

Made a ticket for this as well: https://issues.bestpractical.com/Ticket/Display.html?id=31458

Thank you for your feedback!
