Can an attachment be deleted from a sent Yahoo e-mail?

I sent a Yahoo e-mail with some text and a really big attachment. I'd like to delete the attachment but save the rest of the e-mail -- is there a way to do that?

Update:

Barkley, I'm using Yahoo Mail Classic. It will not allow dragging to the Draft folder, nor does it allow me to "move" the e-mail to the Draft folder.

    No. I've looked around and there seems to be no way to remove an attachment without deleted the e-mail it's attached to.

    Drag to email to the drafts folder. You can now open it, remove the attachment, and save back to drafts. Now drag it to whatever folder you want to save it in.
