Alternatively, if I turn off the "allow attachments"? option for the group, then turn it back on, will it clear out that folder?
to which Shal replied
I haven't tested this, but I doubt it.? If it worked I have to believe that someone would have mentioned it in GMF or beta by now.I have conducted a test and Shal's doubts are correct. Setting Attachments to
Strip rather than
Allow makes the emailed photos section disappear from view, although the storage used by it remains on display in Photos.
Resetting Attachments to
Allow results in the emailed photos section reappearing just as it was previously so that is
not a method of clearing it out.
Shal; I used your test group for this, and I have left everything as it was previously. I note that the Activity Log is not entirely helpful; it merely records that a setting has been changed without any detail of
what has been changed. Similarly undoing the change results in another (identical) entry saying that a setting has been changed.
