Hi,
I'm not sure if this is what the original poster meant, but I can create mails with attachments which my squirrelmail install fails to retrieve. It's a version 1.5.1 develepment snapshot of squirrelmail, dated july something. So it might well be squirrelmail's own problem.
Using MS Office Outlook 2000 or XP, forward two messages at once, which both contains attachments. That is: select two mails with attachments, right click and forward to the dbmail/squirrelmail account. Outlook forwards them inline, not as attachments AFAIK.
Squirrelmail displayed a PDF (encoded gibberish) in the body. And at the same time it did recognise that there were several attachments including the PDF and displayed the list at the bottom of the screen. The PDF could not be retrieved though.
Thunderbird (1.5.0.7) was able to retrieve all the attachments (the original messages and their attachments) when I opened the message which arrived in my inbox. But not when I opened one of the forwarded mails in a separate window and tried opening the attachment from there.
There might be bugs in any of the programs, I'd really wouldn't trust Outlook composing a proper message either.
HTH, Alex
