Hmm.. That's really interesting because we have had similar reports.
Here are our specs:
SquirrelMail 1.4.6
FreeBSD 4.x
Apache 2.2.x
PHP 5.1.x
Courier-IMAP
It has been a while since I looked into this, but I seem to remember my
testing indicated it was the result of certain mailer scripts or clients
not adding a name or filename label to the Content-Type or
Content-Disposition headers. Although other clients such as OE and
Thunderbird handled them properly I sort of assumed they were just
"fixing" the broken formatting, where as SM was maybe truer to RFC. I
could be off base on that assumption though. I seem to remember that if I
manually edited the mail file and added those labels I believe the
attachments would be handled as expected. This lead me to believe it was
how the original message was being broken apart then re-attached that
might be the problem. We discovered that if the user just forwarded as
attachment (which I understand other web clients like yahoo and hotmail do
by default) everything forwarded fine.
Either way it was primarily affecting one user that was receiving mail
from a FAX service that was adding a 'X-Mailer: Mabry' header so we told
them to just forward as attachment.
If this could be "fixed" that would be great as well, but unless someone
who understands mail RFC better than I do indicates otherwise, I'm not
sure SM is actually going anything "wrong".

I have several reports of this behavior from users, but I haven't been able
to reproduce it.
My first thought was that this is not a squirrelmail issue (and I'm still
skeptical), but I need to rule it out. I don't see any other common
denominators among these users.
