That's what I meant, although obviously I didn't explain it very well. In my case 
they're called "unnamed". They're not attachments in the real sense (ie. something 
the sender attached), it's just the way some messages (HTML ones?) appear in 
some mail applications. If I'm in doubt about a message and can't view the source 
(my provider's web-application won't let me), I usually go and check if it's in the 
latest postings on the strathspey homepage. All the latest postings with these 
kinds of "attachments" were there and were genuine answers to current threads 
by known list members!
