Robert,
there is not much to worry about. When one views your messages using Outlook
Express, it OE shows the 'attachment' icon in the message list, but when one
opens the message there doesn't appear to be any attachment. However, this
is because your email client, QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1, is
sending your message in two parts - one containing the main content and a
second that just contains the single line of dashes. OE, trying to be
useful, displays both parts as if the were one (except that it places a
solid horizontal line between them).

The MIME headers for the two parts are ...

First:
> Content-Type: multipart/mixed; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-EC960E7;
> boundary="=======7EFF635B======="
>
>--=======7EFF635B=======
>Content-Type: text/plain; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-EC960E7;
>charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
>Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

and second:

>--=======7EFF635B=======
>Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; x-avg=cert;
>x-avg-checked=avg-ok-EC960E7
>Content-Disposition: inline

cheers,
