Use a tool like demime.pl to filter out attachments while passing
thru the text, and get rid of html formatting also. That's better
than bouncing them, because many of the senders are clueless that
there even WAS an attachment! 

Demime home page:   http://scifi.squawk.com/demime.html
Demime perl script: http://scifi.squawk.com/demime.stable
Demome config file: http://scifi.squawk.com/demime_junkmail.cf

The config file is for killing those freebie footers from Yahoo, Juno, etc.
