I think that runbox.com is hallucinating. Every single message sent to
me at that email address has an attachment on it containing the same
message as the one in the body. Another huge step backwards.

If you are getting an attachment on LUG messages then your mailer is
hallucinating. The LUG strips all attachments from outbound messages,
and converts HTML into text.

Some mailers mistake two-part text messages for attachments, but there
aren't very many two-part text messages sent; I just checked the last 55
messages sent to the LUG, and none of them was multipart.

There are two possibilities: your email client is mistakenly triggering
the "this message has an attachment" flag, or your email server is
adding an attachment.
