Default Viewing Attachment Sizes

Outlook 2003

The attachments are stored in the PST file. Is there a way to view a list of
the attachments
so I can determine their size. I could then delete attachments which take up
too much space.

Thank you for the feedback.

the only way to do it is, from the message list, right click on one of the
column headings, pick Field Chooser, drag the Size field up to a heading, and
sort by size.

That did the trick.

I defined a new view definition called
"My Attachment Size" using your suggestion.

Is there a way to apply "My Attachment Size"
View | Arrange By | Current View | My Attachment Size
to every subfolder of the Inbox so when I select a subfolder
"My Attachment Size" is the default view?
It looks like one must manually set the view to "My Attachment Size"
for each subfolder.

I also noticed that if I look at the properties for the Inbox,
there is a Folder Size button which gives the size of the
contents of each subfolder.

Thank you for the feedback.

You could modify the default Messages view and then every folder using that
view would exhibit the change.

Brian - Thanks for the feedback.

From this article, I see that the default view is the Messages view.
It is too bad that you cannot select a Defined view and specify it
applies to all subfolders.
