Stop Saving Pictures from Email Signatures within Tasks as Attachments

I really hate that I always have plenty of Company Logos within my task attachements. Please stop that.

Update Dec 2025
Thank you all for the continued feedback! We know how disruptive the attachment clutter can be, especially with long email threads. We’re exploring a solution that would stop saving inline items (like signatures and icons) as task attachments entirely, while still allowing them to display in the email body. The challenge is that some teams rely on saved inline items as part of their workflows, so we’re considering options that prevent clutter while still supporting those use cases. We’ll share more soon as we evaluate the best path forward, but in the meantime, would you find an all-or-nothing solution like this valuable?

Raina Ahuja - any progress since December 2025? We have tasks with over 500 "attachments," and it's making it impossible to find anything.
This seems like a simple solution with an option flag to turn this on/off at the workspace, space, or list levels - as the Nylus email payload hits ClickUp, filter inline (is_inline=true) images (type = "image/") that are smaller than 256,000 bytes.
For us, a toggle at the workspace level with these parameters would solve the problem.
We avoid the email integration for this and other reasons, and ClickUp's only option has been for us to pay for full (unused) seats to get guest accounts just to communicate with outside vendors, while other solutions offer native, high-functioning email integrations (SmartSuite/Basecamp/Asana) and even free guest accounts.

Any update on this? This is causing major lag and freezing pages throughout my tasks.

Any update on this, its now been 6 months since the last update. Don't forget to update the Outlook and Gmail plug-ins to do the same, rather than attaching a eml file. Email should work the same regardless of the client used.

Any updates on this? Even if there was at least a way to select multiple and bulk delete these attachments, that would be amazing!
Jordi Kimbrough
I agree! A multiselect/bulk delete option would be a great workaround while further development is in progress.

What's the latest on this? :-)

If you could edit the emails sent to a task that would be good - so much scrolling as all the headers and footers are constantly included making the thread massive and sometimes unusable

Merged in a post:
Remove email attachments before attaching to a task
Jonathon Arbona
Delete attachments from within extension before attaching the email to a task.

Duplicate emails appear in tasks when I attach a link to a task in an email correspondence. Each reply in the same thread is copied as a separate comment/attachment, which causes a mess. Is it possible to somehow limit or deduplicate it?”

In addition, it would be interesting if the images inside a SI email are saved within the description of the task because it is very inoperative to have only one reference to which is the image where anything was detailed

This is the overall problem, but even if we had a quick solution for getting rid of the clutter, like an option to select multiple attachments and perform a single action (delete) would help a great deal.
