LISTSERV replaces the attachment in the message with a link that interested parties can click on. Typically, only a few people are interested in attachments so it saves bandwidth to store the attachments in this fashion.

Not to mention the wasted bandwidth when several people reply to a
message with a large attachment -- and include the entire attachment!
This happened regularly on one list I was on. Subscribers would send 5MB
attachments that would be repeated multiple times. At least they didn't
keep archives. Would that still be an option in lists that don't have
archives?
