So, that tells us that Mail was pre-occupied with a process, but not 
(exactly) that Mail was attempting to open the attachment.

Hmm, I don't use Mail, myself, so have no direct experience. In 
looking on the net, I found, to my surprise, that Mail does auto-open 
and display attachments if they are graphic files. I believe that 
this auto-behaviour is confined to graphic files. Is that your 
experience, or are you saying that an attached text file or a 
spreadsheet, for example, would open automatically and show up in the 
body of the email. That seems doubtful to me.

Was your problem attachment a graphic file?
