 Been there, done that, doesn't work.
 AFAIK SA ignores 'octet/binary' attachments for the rule engine. None of
 the rules that I tried (uri, body, full, rawbody) "saw" anything that was
 known to be in one of those attachments.

You may have to examine the 'raw' message and look for 'encoding' that disguises the URI's in the attachment. Ths whole thing might be encoded as base64 or something... A real mess to work with. You might have more success making a rule that looks for mime headers that are type 'octet' but named 'html'.

I already have some rules for that in my sandbox, but IIRC they aren't scoring too well on ruleqa.

You won't be able to score that too high on its own, but it might combine well in a meta rule with certain buzz phrases from the text portions of the e-mail.

...or look into the TextExtract plugin as Benny suggested.
