I'm having a problem where some user's of my web site complains they're receiving empty e-mail messages. After comparing the content and e-mail header of their e-mails with the ones I get I'm leaning onto the conclusion that their mail server somehow changes the content. Spam filter or virus filter maybe? I can't pinpoint that any of them exists through their mail header though.
I've tested on GMail and Exchange 2010 with more-or-less the same header results.

The user seems to be using Exchange 2003 as a server and the message they receive uses a different boundary than my server seems to be generating. Therefore I think the e-mail has been reubilt somewhere at the user's side and at that time lost some of its content.

Is it common that e-mail messages gets rebuilt during transmit and what are the most common causes for this? How do you prevent this from happening?
