Why do replies stay big without attachments?

I sent an Outlook message with a 3MB attachment. The addressee replied and
we have bounced several replies back and forth. What is puzzling is that
the messages seems to remain at a size of 3MB even though they have not had
anything attached after I first sent it. No attachement is evident, but
each one takes a long time to arrive and leave (and scan by Norton),
attesting to their large size.

What could cause this? Is there a way to strip the invisible attachment
off? I can just delete past messages, but I'm thinking for any future
replies, or when this happens again. I'd appreciate any hints.

George
