[mso] Attachments that aren't.... (re Outlook97)

                About 1/3 of my group mail arrives with the paperclip icon. 
When I open 
these, I get one of two things:

        (1) an email window with nothing but the blue e icon (Internet 
Explorer) 
with a file name below it.  The file names are all "ATT00015.html" (with 
different numbers based on how many came in with this Check-Mail session);

        or (2) an email window with a Notepad icon and a file name like 
"ATT00018.txt; charset = Window...."

                These emails are from members of two different mailing lists 
(one is mso; 
the other is a YahooGroup).  The posts do NOT contain attachments -- I can 
read them on extra-cautious AOL with no indication of attached files. 
Doubleclicking on the file names gets me a box titled Opening Mail 
Attachment and asks me to choose between Open It or Save it to Disk.  I 
have my Security setting (in Tools: Attachments) set to High -- there are 
only two options: High or None.  Any ideas?  Change the Attachments setting 
to None?
Thanks, Ess
