I've seen instances where large email attachments, that don't fully 
download before the mail client times to the next retrieve time period 
get's totally confused, and won't download anything. The solution is to 
TRY to get people to not set Outlook or other email clients to check for 
new mail every 1 or 2 minutes, especially if they're on a slower 
internet connection.  It's not so bad when you're on a local subnet 
where the mail server is located (in house). Most typically are not.

Not sure if that's the issue or not, but I've seen that problem cause 
all sorts of issues, especially with Outlook as the client.
