If i remember correctly, the default filetype for a Numbers spreadsheet (even 
one that began life as a .xls file) is specific to Numbers. You'll need to 
choose the "Excel" option from the "Format" pop-up menu. Also, make sure you 
have the checkbox "Send Windows-friendly attachments" checked.

Hope this helps
