Here you're comparing a text/plain attachment produced by mutt with an
application/msword attachment produced by some by some other MUA.
Could you show us the headers of a text/plain attachment produced by
the other MUA?
I've never seen a "name" parameter with Content-Type text/plain; the
RFCs don't seem to mention such a thing. I assume MicroSoft are
entitled to invent any parameters they want for Content-Type
application/msword. "The set of meaningful parameters depends on the
media type and subtype", says RFC 2045.
