I do something similair for sending, but this is a "read" application, basically whenever a document is sent to a client it will be BCC'ed to my app for stoage against the client reference. I think having played some more I'm going to go with cris's sugestion of a XML file for the email and I'll store the attachments seperately.

Thanks for the input
