.qmf taking up ALOT of space, how to clean?

So Iäve been experiencing constant warnings of space running out and constant crashes because of it, today I dounloadedSpace Inspector and found out that the folder .qmf is eating up my Jolla storage.

/home/nemo/.qmf -7.4GB

/home/nemo/.qmf/tmp - 5.4

/home/nemo/.qmf/mail 1.9

What do these maps contain? Are they both related to mail and ONLY mail (not sms etc?)

I want to delete all the email related files stored on my device (not the ones stored on gmail server), all I want is to be able to search through old mails on my phone. I use gmail on a "General Email" setup. I tried to remove my account in settings, but that did not affect the folders at all.

I really don't want to loose any sms conversations or anything else, ONLY emails and attachments stored ON the phone eating up all my space and causing constant crashes.

Is there any way to set up my email account so that it doesn't save every email on the device and still enables me to search my inbox?
