Not to mention that that quote or behavior has nothing to do with the  
behavior of our ActiveSync implementation. It's explaining that if a  
message is *received* that contains a message/rfc822 attachment ONLY  
then it will not be readable on most ActiveSync clients. The  
attachment is, of course, still transmitted to the device.
