That would almost lean me towards thinking it is something at the ISP doing virus scanning and is some how screwing up the attachment encoding.

But since you say it happens with all your mail providers...


Are you per chance running anything on your local machine that does any kind of virus or spam filtering in realtime as the emails are downloaded (such techniques are often used in Windows where the AV software acts as a mail proxy, so your client is really connecting to the AV software which in turn connects to the mail server, as the email comes down, the AV software starts scanning it in near real time while it feeds the "clean" data to the mail client.... I can easily see this kind of system causing problems).
