  |[... OpenOffice.org handles M$ nonsense, so ]
  | I added the following in my exmh-defaults:
  | 
  |    *magic_lMicrosoft Installer:      application/mscrap
  | 
  | Then in the mailcap, I added:
  | 
  |    application/mscrap ; ooffice "%s"
  | 
  | Now all is hunky-dory.

 you might want to consider adding the ‘-view’ option
 (or using ‘viewdoc’, which runs OO.o with ‘-view’),
 so the attached dumbments (anything written with
 M$-Worthless is not a document!) is opened readonly.
 I've found this can precent confusion and accidents.

cheers!
