The file format for 2007 is .docx not .doc.x
If you have 2007, there is an option to save the file format to 93-2003 .doc
format.
Also the recipients can always download the 2003 compatibility software,
which should automatically ask when trying to open the .docx in 2003. This
only takes a few minutes.
Hope this helps
