Your Mailbox/Attach folder is where all the attachments you receive from GoldMine e-mails ends up. Over time this folder can get cluttered with unwanted attachments from SPAM emails, forwards, and chain mails.

When you delete an email in GoldMine, the attachments WILL NOT be removed, by default. If you want to delete the attachments also along with the email, then you will have to customize GoldMine by following the steps given below.
