Check the options, if you have it set to read all in plain text then the
HTML part of any incoming HTML email will show as an attachment, if you
click on the clip you should see it.

View menu has an option to view "Message in HTML" that is probably safer
than changing this setting...

Suddenly most of my incoming emails arrive with a paperclip icon next to
them but never had attachments sent with them in the first place.

How can I make OE report attachments correctly again?

Many thanks,

Noel
