Hi Jeff, I can confirm this strange behaviour as well this side. I am still on Snow Leopard and I find that while I can read messages from Nick, they seem to have attachments. These messages are flagged and every time I try to open these, an alert box is triggered. So I don't think its a Lion issue: something to do with mail senders.
