I just sent a test wmv to myself (SeaMonkey 2.2 - linux) and I do see
the attachment:
Content-Type: video/x-ms-wmv;
 name="test_wmv.wmv"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment;
 filename="test_wmv.wmv"

Obviously I have to play it with an external application (movieplayer),
but the attachment comes through just fine & I do see the attachment
symbol next to the email subject indicating that an attachment is there.

Got the test file from here:
