thanks for the reply Ken, 
yep, I've been through that section a couple of times, believe me.
it looks like the firewall is doing the connection dropping, only on emails with attachments
from comcast servers and randomly at that, many of them get through fine.
we are running a sonicwall 4100 with built-in virus/malware scanning.
our system is processing about 5k messages per day and it's all running 
pretty smoothly with this one exception that has shown up in the past couple weeks.
