  That's very easily fixed:  Click

 I gave a damn about Windows' feelings. ;-) 
Hmm... well that started an interesting thread.  Somehow Thunderbird
took my reply to the BBC Micro mailing list and sent it to classiccmp.
I wonder how it did that?
Rich's easy fix is one I use from time to time, and so NEdit (my
favourite editor) has been high amongst the usual suspect when I try to
open files, for years.
What I've not managed to figure out is how to get rid of things from
that list, though.  But we're getting further off topic, I fear!
