I have recently started to receive some Microsoft Word 2008 documents with the 
extension .docx.

When I read this documents on my Linux Ubuntu machine with OpenOffice, then 
there is no problem. Double clicking on the downloaded .docx is automatically 
recognized in the Ubuntu (Hardy Heron) OpenOffice.

Versions of OpenOffice.org on Ubuntu and MacOSX please?
When I read this document on my MAX 10.4, then I cannot get OpenOffice to open 
this document. MAC OS is downloading this attachment as a ZIP file and not 
.docx. Is that where the problem lies?

.docx files appear to be and are compressed files to older versions of OpenOffice.org. I don't know when .docx handling was added to OpenOffice.org but I suspect that Ubuntu Hardy is shipping with a newer version of OpenOffice.org than you are using with MacOSX. The answer to my question should confirm this.
