on your issue I will be the first to agree with you. I am no expert with
email structure and have learned in the last year that there are tons of
different methods that they get sent. Mainly I see Microsoft clients being
the ones that change up their methods with different products. Outlook
express sends one way, OL 97 sends another way and OL2k sends another way.
Its been difficult enough just trying to block these attachments, much less
trying to parse through inboxes and strip attachments. I could only suggest
reading the RFC on it and seeing if there is some kind of standard, of
course this doesn't mean that everyone is following it :(
