I get around this by just renaming files to exclude the extension, and tell the recipient to re-add the extension after saving the file. Good enough for occasional use.

I had the exact same problem. I wish they could say it like that, it would have saved me a half hour of confusion and it would have reached my recipient a few hours ago!
