I've had something similar here; XMail 1.17 on Debian 3.0. One of our users decided to send out a 6mb attachment to all our staff (47 users), & about 70 percent of the messages received had corrupted attachments. That was some time ago & since then I've told the person to use our network for such distribution. However it doesn't take away from the fact that messages were corrupted.
