My system is MacOS 10.1
All my mail messages which contains an attachment or corrupted...in the sense that the body and the attachment of these messages have been changed and replaced by the body and the attachment of one message, always the same.
Is somebody 'upstream' of you running some virus filter on an e-mail server ? Possibly misconfigured ? Though usually, the 'replacement' message/attachment says something to that effect... (Some of my e-mail goes through such a beast but it has yet to affect anything I've seen on this mailing list)

The 'replacement' message/attachment is the following: =============
Change Set: CelesteAccented-mdr Date: 7 November 2001 Author: Mike Rutenberg
Makes Celeste properly display accented characters which are part of an email message, especially text message body, HTML message body, text header lines, and header lines encoded with mime.

[attachment] ================
this message is one present in my Email BD, so I think the virus, if this is one, pick at random a message in the Email BD to replace all messages with an attachment.
Any hints?

I really doubt that this is a virus (although it does show some virus like traits). For one thing, that changeset has been around for a while and you'd expect the AV folks to have come up with something, for another, it's hard to see someone writing a virus which knows enough to escape the Squeak environment and lay waste to your Celeste folders (and only your Celeste folders).
Can you try opening up the Celeste folder(s) (with a text editor, maybe) and seeing if the other attachments/messages are in there? If they are, then this is some kind of Celeste issue.
