IIRC somebody said that these were not attachments.
They ARE attachments (MIME parts).
In case anyone is interested...
Apple Mail, Thunderbird and Mulberry, if properly configured, can send and receive X509 certs as MIME parts. I don't think any other OS X clients can deal with this (X509 certs as MIME parts) (yet) [1].
Mulberry, Apple Mail and Entourage can do PGP/Mime (The full PGP8 plugin for Apple Mail and Entourage only comes with non-free versions of PGP8. Without the plug, you need (IIRC) to use) the system wide service provided by the PGP app (clunky but it works). I think PowerMail can do PGP/Mime via services too, but there is AFAIK no PGP8 plugin for PowerMail (correct me if I'm wrong).
IIRC GNUMail and Mulberry (and maybe Thunderbird ?) can also do GPG/Mime.
Mailsmith has integration with all "levels" of PGP8, but only does "inline" PGP sigs at the moment.
(I'd rather see the PGP/GPG model taking hold in mailing lists (if its really necessary at all) than the X509 model. (Fundamental differences) However Apple Mail's "plumping for X509" (which *may* be a consequence of Lookout using X509) has put a spanner in that one as far as "OS X lists" are concerned.)
mark.
