Finding attachments in long email strings?

I often have trouble finding attachments that were sent to me days/weeks ago in long email chains. I know it's in there - somewhere - but with dozens or hundreds of replies they can be almost impossible to find.


Is there an easy was to do this (on my Mac) using the standard Mail client? Or is there another mail app that can do it? For example, it would be great to click on the most recent email reply and see a list of all the attachment to the chain listed right there.


Thanks.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.2
