The settings you've found pertain to the message content, not to
attachments. With web mail services you don't usually have much choice if
any... And with gmail, none at all.
Do as Phillip & I suggested:
Make sure you save new documents with the extension added -- there's a
simple checkbox in the Save As dialog labeled "Append file extension". For
an existing file you can select it in a Finder window then use Command+G
(Get Info) to be certain the is no check in the Hide Extension checkbox. If
necessary edit the file name to add the extension.
Secondly, Zip the files before attaching.
If you continue to have problems you can report the issue to Google:

Thanks for your reply.
I use Gmail. My two sending choices are:
- Use default text encoding for outgoing messages
- Use Unicode (UTF-8) encoding for outgoing messages
The first one is chosen. Should I use Unicode instead?
If the problem is at the other end, why do I only have this problem with 2008?
I constantly have it with 2008 and never had it with 2004.
