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?

Blocking executable attachments is not the answer either (at least not the entire answer). The virus email will just include an html link to download the file, instead of attaching it. Instead of using an SMTP engine, the virus will have a light-weight web server.
