Some even block zip attachments. Often renaming will overcome that, such as

Gets complicated for the user, though. I still get a lot of people
visiting my web page on how to open a zip file.

The way I get round content filter restrictions is to send files using
YouSendIt (http://www.yousendit.com/). It's meant for sending very big
files (which it's also good at) but it is also a good way to get round
the various blocks on email attachments.
