But I expect most servers don't have any software on them related to opening emails or Office files. I would've thought that Rackspace reserves mandatory server hotfixes for only the most serious vulnerabilities (E.G. shellshock).

While ppt's are the vector in the wild it seems the core vulnerability is in packager.dll, so possibly other ways of abusing it exist.

Why not? Automated document processing, hosted desktop, and a few other ideas come to mind where the server would be affected.
