 *.mht are integrated HTML files; and contain everything needed to 
 display a particular page in its entirety. So if a HTML has an image and 
 is saved as MHT; the image is part of that single file too.
 

so its not really just a microsoft's version of html, as was originally 
implied..

Firstly it is no way Microsoft HTML(why the world thinks everything
starting with m is microsoft ?)

it  stands for MIME HTML. It is a standard for including resources
that in usual HTTP pages are linked externally, such as images and
sound files, in the same file as the HTML code,

 I cant open these files on my Ubuntu desktop, all I get is the HTML dump.

I assume by Ubuntu Desktop you mean Firefox 2.0, which is the latest
one in edgy. try installing the
http://www.extensionsmirror.nl/index.php?showtopic=702  extension to
enable mht viewing and saving.

Or if you can go non-free way , you can download opera 9.01 from opera.com

 If it does dumps html, you can try renaming it to .html :)
 
 I hope that helps...

Opera on Ubuntu is able to open *.mht files.
Renaming it to .html also works ( give some garbage at the end of the page)

opening a file has little to do with the extension - browser. Its more 
to do with how the browser identifies its mime time and allocates an 
handler process. So look for issues that might have a role to play in 
wrong mime type reporting.
