No, he didn't forget. The attachment made it through quite fine - you
should check your mailservers, I'd suppose.

Reg. the question the OP had: Haven't seen it before. I'd suggest
to create a new profile by running "firefox -profilemanager" and
then, step by step, I'd copy the files from the old profile (to be
found under ~/.mozilla/firefox) to the new profile, until it breaks
again.

That's a good advice - adblock really is a MUST, IMO.
