Remove attachments from all emails in a folder (Outlook for Mac)












0















I'm looking for a tool to strip email attachments from my archived folders on Outlook for Mac (Version 16.20).



I am aware that such a solution exists for PC users, but have not found anything for Mac users.



I have emails archived going back to 2010, and although I'd like to keep the messages, I need to free up space, so would like to strip away the attachments.



I note also that there are some solutions involving VBA code, but nothing (that I'm aware of) that's applicable to the latest version of Outlook.



Finally, I'm also aware that this can be done one email at a time, but with tens of thousands of messages to process, this is clearly not an option.
