This is pretty lame. I run Mailman in an environment where most of the users use Lotus Notes on Macs, and in our case Mailman converted the vast majority of their attachments to .bin or .obj because Notes sent most things as application/octet-stream. PDF file? .bin. Excel file? ..bin. Word doc? .bin. Argh. Users can NOT figure out how to open these files (or even what application they were supposed to have been openable in) after getting them from the archives. Most of them had Stuffit Expander launch automatically (on the .bin file, duhr) and were generally confused.
I agree, but why is Lotus Notes sending PDFs, etc. as application/octet-stream instead of application/pdf, etc?
