How are you getting IMP to send appledouble messages? Or am I 
misunderstanding you?

So, if the problem is appledouble messages being sent from Mac clients, 
and then IMP *and* other clients can't see the attachments, then maybe 
there's an IMP problem but it sounds suspicious to me. If it's just IMP 
that can't see the attachments, then please create a bug ticket with a 
full message dump that we can use to debug it.

This is the part that confuses me.
