Maybe they are right or not in their world, but it doesn't matter.

The only important thing is that the recipient can open what the sender 
sends them.  If they can, there's no problem.  If they can't, then it is 
the sender's responsibility to send in a format that they can open, just 
like they should write their messages in a language the recipient is 
likely to be able to understand.

As others have commented, it is the MTA's job to deliver what the user 
sends, not try and second-guess their intention, or the desires of the 
recipient.
