If it's a Linux thing, perhaps someone who knows about such things
could advise.

Thanks, Ray
I am not at all familiar with Linux but I bet SM is much the
same across platforms.
In the helper app box should be a button for "New Type".
(There is on Windows version).
If so, click that and follow the prompts.
If not, then hopefully a Linux person will respond.
A Linux person responds, only to confuse the issue more.
First I checked my Helper Applications and there are none for office
extensions in the content type column! My Linux also only has buttons
for close and help. No "NewType".
However, when I double click a power point presentation attachment that
a friend sent me, a dialog box pops up asking me if I want to open the
attachment with OO Impress or save the file.
So, I sent myself a doc attachment from another account and it also
popped up a dialog box asking me if I want to open or save the file. I
could select either option.
Ok, so I go back and check Helper Applications, and there is now an
entry for Word document at the bottom of the list! Still none for the
power point file.
Confusing? You betcha!
Update
I just did a search for sample spreadsheet and power point presentation
files, just as I did for the sample doc file I saved then emailed to myself.
Seems the action of saving the files creates the entry in Helper
Applications because all three now appear there.
