Saving as doc (but especially in docx) in LO sometimes produces a document that opens correctly in LO but can not be opened in MS Office (OR the MS warning message *wording* might lead the user to think that it can't/shouldn't be opened). In any case, regardless of who is to be blamed, there is a "digital divide" that prevents MS and LO users to communicate... IMHO the only way to change this is to send ODF files and ask the users at the other end to install a free ODF compatible software (LO or other) since it is costless, while refusing to do so means that on your end you would have to *buy* a software license from MS...
