Luis Filipe Nassif commented on TIKA-2042:
------------------------------------------
This problem is very very recurrent. I think we should search for some of the
eml magics in a larger range.
> MBOX file detected wrongly as text/html
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: TIKA-2042
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2042
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.13
> Environment: Ubuntu 14.04, Apache Tika 1.13 and 1.14 nightly at the
> time of this writing
> Reporter: Vjeran Marcinko
> Fix For: 1.14
>
> Attachments: clojure.mbox, mbox_email_section.txt, mbox_header.txt
>
>
> MBOX file doesn't get recognized via "magic detection" mechanism as
> "application/mbox", but wrongly as "text/html".
> Workaround for this in Tika 1.13 is achieved by placing following in
> custom-mimetypes.xml, as suggested on mailing list (priority has to be larger
> than message/rfc822):
> <mime-type type="application/mbox">
> <magic priority="70">
> <match value="From " type="string" offset="0"/>
> </magic>
> <glob pattern="*.mbox"/>
> </mime-type>
> Sample MBOX file is attached.
