If you tell your e-mail app to download attachments automagically then the file will be stored locally as well as on the mail server. If it does not d/l the attachment, then it won't take up *local* space but will on the mail server (and some mail servers will complain... sometimes there's a 10 or 15 MB limit on the size of your mail box). For e.g., I have set Entourage to not d/l attachments automagically if they are over 200 K.
