This is a security setting in OE 6.0 and later updates. try the following to disable the same:

1. Open Outlook Express and click Tools and then Options.

2. Click Security tab and uncheck the option " Do not allow attachments ....".

3. Close and open OE for once. There won't be any more errors.

A workaround also...
Forward the message..but not really
and you will see the attachment in your email that is being forwarded
