edit the message as a draft, delete the original attachment, attach the
newly saved word doc, and then save-as-draft. then move the draft into
the folder? oh, and then delete the original message? :-)

well, I don't know how it works in windows land, but open office saves
to the local disc, not to an imap server. plus I have a feeling that
outlook+word isn't using imap anyway. because you CAN'T edit an
attachment on an imap server. you have to append a new message to the
folder with the edited message contents (and/or edited attachments).

there is no write access like what you imagine via the IMAP protocol -
perhaps the Exchange protocol is different.
