It seems to reliably show paperclips here.

It can /never/ do this before you have viewed the post though, because
technically newsgroup attachments are just specially marked parts of the
message body; there is no (reliable) way to tell from the header only
whether a post has attachments.

Note that in newsgroups, the message body is only downloaded as soon as
you view the post.
