As a matter of fact, one would have to blame the e-mail program
you use. The file extension is *not* equivalent to the file
type, and the mailing list software accepts the (MIME) type text/plain
and a couple of others.
The problem with most modern e-mail clients/programs/apps/... is that
they use something you could translate as "unknown binary format"
as type for their attachments if they can't guess the correct
file type from the file extension.
It would be interesting to know (for me) if there are modern
e-mail programs / web apps which you could *teach* about the
mime type, e.g., for all files ending with extension '.R'...
