Thanks - I'd not spotted that.  It also saves the text of the email 
(including the HTML version if there is one) as well as actual 
attachments, but it would be easy enough to delete those afterwards if not 
needed.

I think a user interface improvement would be to have a more 
attachment-specific menu over the attachments area, which would include 
saving all attachements, stripping them, and saving individual attachments 
under new names.  That would make it much harder for people not to 
discover these features!

I see that the Save As box for saving an individual attachment is also 
available via Menu -> Goto -> Part.
