It depends what the mime type of the attachment is - can you see what it
says for an email that doesn't display properly.

BTW, a "good" mime header for a JPG attachment that does display is
something like:

        --------------080600040504050005000407
        Content-Type: image/jpeg; name="DSCF2025_Driver.JPG"
        Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
        Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="DSCF2025_Driver.JPG"

And viewing in Evolution again or some other client?

It sounds like some client/program is not setting the content mime type
properly.  Is it always the same source for the email?
