Looks like this one needs reopening to me... I've recently had to parse out attachments with the following Content-Type lines and no Content-Disposition provided:

Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel; name=transactions.xls

It might not seem like much, but the content-type check for this workaround in get_filename appears to be case-sensitive, and thus misses the upper case "T" in Content-Type.
There is no information provided in the headers about the mailer they use, but they get plenty of other bits wrong too (eg. the xls file is actually just tab-separated values).
