I just want to check that there is no "strange" attachment to my email other then the gpg signature?

I've just got a bounce with the following subject.

                           Subject: 
Symantec Mail Security detected that
you sent a message containing a
suspicious attachment.
(SYM:02629890341371604646)

Personally I hate it when people put the entire message in the subject.

Any way, just making sure that no one else is seeing any thing "funny".
