amavisd does not strip attachments: neither when a message is passed directly, nor on releasing from a quarantine. > Am I understanding this right?

There was a single MIME leaf part wrapped within a multipart/alternative container. The leaf node was (MIME-)declared as text/plain, no filename was suggested in a header, and the file(1) utility recognized it as some executable (not a Microsoft executable). It is quite possible the file(1) verdict was wrong, as can sometimes happen with text in 8-bit character sets.
