I haven't, but I have an opinion. ;)

Not all Microsoft MUAs can handle TNEF either. I think a simpler
solution is also better: bounce such messages back to the sender, at
least for local senders, with an explanation and instructions on how
to correct their MUA configuration in the bounce message text.
