It appears that the setting under "Administration Center > Attachments and Avatars > Attachment Settings > Check attachment's extension" is being ignored. Even though it was unchecked, Excel (xls/xlsx) files were being blocked from upload. I checked it, saved the new setting, unchecked it, and saved again. However, that did not work. I added "xls" and "xlsx" to the list of "Allowed attachment extensions," and now it is allowing upload of Excel files. However, it is checking for the extension regardless of the "Check attachment extension" setting status.
