If hundreds of thousands of people are still blindly clicking on attachments in their email, is there any hope of mitigating the threat of hundreds of thousands of compromised systems with open backdoors?

trivial - disallow executable attachments entirely.
And if you also want to stop potential buffer overflow of normal attachments, disallow HTML in E-mail.
And if you STILL want to allow HTML formatting, then just disallow hyperlinks.
