i have added the following to imp/view.php under view_attach :

     $fname = MIME::decode($mime->name);
     $tmp   = explode(".", $fname);
     $ext   = $tmp[1];

     if ($ext == 'doc') { $mime_type = 'application/msword'; }
     if ($ext == 'xls') { $mime_type = 'application/msexcel'; }
     if ($ext == 'ppt') { $mime_type = 'application/mspowerpoint'; }

works as expected...so far; i'm just now learning php.
