MimeMap being silly.

I get a quite a few documents, e-mailed from one of the organisations 
that I belong to, in .docx format. I've been aware for a while that 
MPro (7.06 FWIW) and MimeMap between them seem to have trouble with 
some of these, as sometimes they arrive with the filetype data, and I 
have to change the type manually to MSWordX before EasiWriter can 
manage them.

Today I've had a message with two .docx files attached, and one of 
these has the correct type and one has the filetype data. This latter 
one will happily open in EasiWriter once I've given it the correct 
type.

Is there a logical, and perhaps remediable, explanation of this weird 
behaviour? Is it relevant that the sender uses Yahoo mail, perhaps?

With best wishes,

Peter.
