I've seen a handful with no attachment and checked my logs -- none was
stripped on my end...

We've noticed a few problems with it as well.  We've received a few e-
mails with one of the typical Sobig subject lines, only no
attachment.  The attachment headers are in the e-mail, so our MUA
thinks there is an attachment, but there is just no "body" to the
attachment.

Either there are a few broken variants out there sending out e-mail
without the payload, or something in-between us and the sender is
stripping out the attachment.  It isn't our AV system, since it would
quarantine the entire message.

Has anyone else experienced this?
