It scans the message for words like "attachment". If it finds the word but there is no attachment, it will alert the user. I believe Kmail has this feature.

I did a bit o' google and found what looks like an updated version: <a href="http://www.bazza.com/~eaganj/weblog/code/mail-plugin/" rel="nofollow">Attachment Scanner Plugin</a> It says it works with Mail.app on 10.4 or later, and references Leopard - I'm going to try it out.

I haven't found it again for 10.5 though, but it probably still exists. There used to be a plugin to do JUST THIS for Mail.app for 10.4.

Kept doing it to me. Then I realized I should have been attaching my resume to those application emails. /sheepish I got pissed at this for false positives recently. Kept doing it to me.

I imagine I would have seen that message many times had it been installed in Entourage or other email programs I've used over the years. BTW, I haven't moved to Mail. I keep trying it, and I keep disliking it. I actually <em>like</em> Entourage, despite its massive user database sizes. That is nice.
