I agree that it would be nice to support some kind of alternative 
attachment mechanism, but as always I would be looking for a way to 
generalize it. In this case it means providing some kind of hook which 
would make it possible to do add support for uploading to Dropbox/Google 
Drive/etc. instead of attaching to the email. I haven't looked into the 
details and I don't really know how hard it would be to do. A quick 
search reveals that Dropbox has a command line interface, but apparently 
it does not allow uploading files.

That is something I can quite definitely put in the “bluesky” 
category. It would be nice, but it is also very unlikely to happen both 
in the near and distant future.

Thanks for the feedback!
