Did you try naming the files as filename.pov.txt? that worked for me.
It confused me because I had to bring over some pov files from my NT
workstation, and they wouldn't load until I renamed them. Of course, if
you do this, make sure you turn off "only render .pov files" in you
configuration settings.
