Oh.  Well, it sounds like it's still true that Gnome MIME settings don't
work in Evolution.  Glad to know there's a local mime_types file.  I
assume you're talking about these ones (RH9):
/usr/share/mime-info/evolution-1.4.keys
/usr/share/mime-info/evolution-1.4.mime

So how about an example of how would one add an application tie-in so
(as in Bill's question) there's an option to open a WAV file in XMMS? 
Some #comments in the .keys and .mime files would be helpful and help
avoid some "stupid questions".

Thanks,
Eric
