Default Not receiving attachments

Hello,
I'm seeing an issue that confuses me, and was hoping someone could give me
a
suggestion or two.
We use POP3 email at our office. Some users run Outlook while others use
Outlook Express. I am running Outlook 07. One of the Outlook Express
users
never receives attachments from me. The message comes through just fine,
but
no attachment. There is no .dat file or .txt file or any notice that an
attachment has been stripped, it's as if the attachment never existed.
Other
OE users in the office receive attachments from me just fine. Not being
that
familiar with OE, I was hoping someone might know if there's a security
setting somewhere about downloading attachments. I did see the option
about
not opening attachments that could potentially be a virus, but the users
who
do receive attachments from me have that checked, so it wouldn't seem that
could be it. (I didn't see anything in the security settings on our mail
platform that looked like it could be the culprit.)
All of our OE users are running OE6, XPPro. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.

In Tools Options Read, is read messages in plain
text checked? I don't know if that is the problem, as
even if 'plain text' is ticked, an attachment paperclip
should appear at the right of the message title bar.
