I think a previous suggestion of having an option in one of the
configuration menus is the best.  I won't download by default, but you
can go into the menu and change it.

Although, now that I think about it ... Maybe having a button option on
the message, or readily available might be nice because some messages
you might not want to download, and others you do.

I think if it can only be one way or the other, put me in the camp of
don't download.  Better safe than sorry.  But a choice would be nice.
