So, I've resolved my issue. I've decided to post the resolution to confirm
the fact that it's not a bug, and to provide some insight to others who
might not want to output their HSSFWorksheet to a filesystem directly.
My problem was that even though I'm not writing to a FileOutputStream, you
still to do a HSSFWorksheet.write(), in order to create the POIFSFileSystem.
So, when I was attaching by Workbook to my mail message, I was attaching the
Worksheet Object. The proper thing to do is write the worksheet to a
ByteArrayOutputStream, and attach that.
ByteArrayOutputStream WorkbookStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
Workbook.write(WorkbookStream);
WorkbookAttachment = WorkbookStream.toByteArray();
Thanks to everyone (especially Jason) for helping.

Curtis,
Your shouldn't have to manually attach properties, at least unless something
has radically changed.
Could you dummy up a simple test and write the sheet to a file instead of a
mime attachment. Maybe something is going wrong with mime. If it is still a
problem then please create a bug in bugzilla, attaching both the errornous
excel file and a code snippet to create the file.
FYI I have never seen this problem in my use of HSSF.
