It really depends on whether the mail program looks at (and believes) the file extension given. The concept of a file extension accurately describing the contents of a file is very much a Microsoft thing and stems from DOS days; it was never something that Unix systems ever did. The only thing in a Content-Type: header that can be relied on is the mime type - and if a sending program gets that wrong, then you are stuffed. A content type of unknown/unknown is basically the sending application saying "I can't be bothered to sort this out, you deal with it". Some programs make assumptions and may get it right some of the time - others, like Evolution, just do as they are told.
