Dear Sirs, We use Thunderbird email, each email attached with coy's logo ( .jpg), during email discussion each logo will carry forwards on every email received, therefore the file become big (many logos attached). Pls advise whether any setting to minimize the attached logo, let say only last 2 sender's logo appeared the other automatically deleted (logo can be more than 10 logos subject to the participants), which slow down the email due to heavy attachment. Thanks you for assistance. Anto

Maybe it will be tidier if you go to

Tools|Account Settings|<select account>|Composition & Addressing

and clear the checkboxes Include signature for replies and Include signature for forwards.

That will stop adding new copies of the signature. I don't know of any tools to automatically edit out previous signatures or images; in theory this can work in newsgroups where the "-- " separator is used, but I've never seen this sort of tidying up in email. (And this only works properly when all contributors to the conversation use bottom-posting.)

In the general case, it would be quite hard to automatically identify and locate exactly which content should be removed, since most signatures are a blend of text, URLs and images. In a special case where the signature is an image file (is a jpeg really a good choice for this?) then it might appear to be quite easy.

Those of us who advocate and prefer bottom-posting or interleaved posting would argue that it's your responsibility to trim the older material to suit, anyway. ;-)
