An email is being sent to the mailserver with an attachment, a sure sign of
hackers at work.. ;)

Some mail servers can strip messages if the attachment has a certian suffix
(like .vbs, for Visual Basic Script) to prevent the spreading of viruses.
Never the less, calling that an attack is stretching the concept IMO.
