Looks like i jumped the gun here.  Since i implemented this fix late 
last night, it took until today around 11 or noon for attachments to 
start being corrupted again.

Maybe i'll play around with Apache's MaxRequestsPerChild..?

Maybe i'll try completely recompiling Perl from scratch.  :(

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
mike
