I have been looking at the mime support for OOo and have created the following.
To add mime support to the mailcap file you will need to do the following as per the packaging-manuals. http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/mime-policy/ch2.html run if [ -x /usr/sbin/update-mime ]; then update-mime fi from the postinst and postrm files then add in the text below to the file /usr/lib/mime/packages/openoffice.org. This will then be copied to the mailcap file on install and removed after removal. I have not included any support for MS or other formats although that would be simple to do if you think it is correct.
