Attachments usually survive, but they may not exceed a certain size
limit. Usually that is problematic - PDF documents may get very large,
even the most simple ones usually exceed size limit (it depends on
what engine and what fonts you use).
I don't know why text attachment was converted into an inline one
(gmail often displays simple text documents inline, but that doesn't
mean that they were converted by mailman). Usually that doesn't happen
unless a moderator did that or something weird happened :).
Many people upload PDFs to their own servers and post a link if PDFs
are large. Sometimes you can attach PNG with a screenshot of
problematic part. You could also make an attachment in bug reporting
software (http://tracker.luatex.org/) if you are reporting a bug.
