  Are you perhaps using some tool such as MIMEDefang or the Anomy mail
sanitizer on the gateway?

  Postfix and Amavisd are both careful not to alter MIME content, but
there are tools which specifically normalize MIME content to defeat
mail scanner evasion logic coming from viruses or malware.  Those I
just named are a couple, but I believe some commercial products do this
as well.

  It's also possible that an AV product on the user's machine are doing
this, for instance there are AV packages which install a POP or IMAP
proxy on the client machine and filter all incoming mail through it.

  These are a few possibilities to check for.
