Attachment file extensions

Hi. We have an automated program that sends out notification emails to
clients. One recipient in particular can not see the file extension on the
attachments since he upgraded to Outlook 2007. I assumed this was due to a
"Hide file extensions for known types" type of setting, but the user claims
the problem went away 2 weeks ago without any intervention on his end (or
ours).

Is there a client side setting to hide extensions of received attachment
files only within outlook 2007, without changing it at the OS level?
