Mac Mail Attachment Cleaner: Free Up Space
Here is a wild fact about the Apple Mail app: by default, it downloads every single attachment you receive and saves it to your Mac's hard drive.
That 50MB PDF presentation from your boss? Saved. The 20 high-res photos your aunt sent three years ago? Saved. The massive ZIP file you already downloaded and extracted? Saved again.
Over time, the Mail app quietly hoards gigabytes of these files, eating up your precious storage space without you ever noticing.
Why deleting emails doesn't fix it
You might think, "I'll just go through my inbox and delete old emails."
That doesn't work. Even if you delete an email, macOS often leaves the downloaded attachment buried deep inside a hidden system folder (~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail). Finding and deleting these files manually is a labyrinth of obscure folders and randomly generated file names.
