Default list attachment names in table view

In the table view of my inbox, I'd like to create a column that lists the
names of the attachments.. This data has to be available somewhere, doesn't
it? It's isolated when you Left click on a message with an attachment (View
attachment). Any thoughts?

Default list attachment names in table view

I've never been able to find a way to list the names or number of attachments
in an e-mail within a view, or even filter on whether attachments exist or
not.

You would need to put the names into a field that Outlook can display in a view. No built-in field is available for that. You could write take VBA code for the MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event to monitor the folder for new items and copy attachment names into the BillingInformation or Mileage property.

It takes a DASL query:

"urn:schemas:httpmail:hasattachment" = 1
