I do not save all attachments to my received email. It used to be that when I received an email with a attachment I could choose to open or download to a particular file. Now my only choice is to download the file which happens automatically as soon as I click on the attachment. I am using Windows 11 and read my email while it remains on the ACENTEC website. That seems to be a good security move. The email never is downloaded into my computer and remains accessible from any of the several computers I use.
