Your question may be better answered in a newsgroup appropriate to your
problem. This newsgroup is dedicated to the Microsoft Access database
product. The Microsoft website may have misdirected you. That said, there's
probably nothing of importance, I'd just delete it.

If you have an attachment named "hey you.mht", it may very well be a virus,
especially if it came in an e-mail bounce message and you didn't send a
message titled "hey you". It may be innocuous, but I would be very
suspicious and *not* open the attachment, nor view the e-mail in HTML
format.

Attachments of the form "ATT#####.htm" are usually the HTML-format version
of a message. You see this as an attachment when you view the message in
plain text. It isn't normally anything to worry about. However, in a
message that is already fishy, I wouldn't take any chances.
