OK, your GPU isn't affected. Note, I don't mentioned an Intel backdoor,
but just a driver that doesn't work anymore.

There's most likely no need to do so. For what ever reason I'm unable to
import the mail, before trying to import it, I've taken a look at the
attachment. I couldn't see any possible malicious content in the human
readable attachment, let alone that Paul was able to import it and
nothing odd happened.

It can't be the GPU issue I mentioned and a virus is quasi out of scope.
What in the attachment should include a virus? The "href" parts?
