Raise your memory limit.  PHP's internal string manipulation functions  
are notorious memory hogs.  Understand that processing an attachment  
may involve base64 encoding, VFS storage (one of the VFS storage  
backends - possibly mysql - is extremely memory inefficient, resulting  
in memory usage 3 or 4 times the size of the data to be stored), etc.

In all honesty, 100 megs is not all that much.  I can guarantee that  
any desktop mail application routinely uses this amount of memory,
