This is probably more of a problem the client that sent the mail.  I
often see copies of the message as attachments to the same message and
sometimes (tho not that often), as suggested, with mail that has an
attachment, a 2nd attachment that is largely useless.  Sometimes there
is supposedly an attachment when there really was none (there is an
attachment section at the bottom, but it is blank) -- this happens for
me when a still buggy java application I'm working on at work sends me
an email; the headers constructed by the java SMTP code are wrongly
indicating something about attachments (which works when there IS an
attachment)...

A lot of this has *nothing* to do with SM (happens with any other client
I've ever used) and to me is mostly acceptable.  Users are used to these
glitches (they are extremely minor!) caused by too many mail
servers/clients/transfer agents with too many different standards, and I
think the request, though valid in that things *ideally should* work
like that, is asking too much (and assuming the user is too stupid).
