Just to be clear, I only have problems RECEIVING attachments. I can
send attachments from TB! just fine; so far, I have not encountered
corruption on outgoing mail, although admittedly, I don't send very
many attachments. Also I'm running under Win 2K, not XP.

As I noted before, I can zip up a TB! folder with a "corrupted"
attachment and send that zip'd folder to another TB! user, and it WILL
be corrupted for them, yet that user forwarding the message to a
non-TB! user will result in the message being perfectly fine.

I don't have any control over how attachments are sent to me, and MIME
Base64 is presently the most common method of encoding attached
binaries such as JPEGs or ZIP files.
