We seem to have stumbled across a curious problem in Fedora 3.1 (as
compared with 2.2.4). If you have an MS Word file in a Fedora 2.2.4
datastream (not something we encourage, but we have some!) and download
it onto a Windows machine the header type is application/msword and
software recognises the file for what it is. The same file from a 3.1
installation comes down as application/vnd.ms-word which browsers and
software don't seem inclined to deal with. This seems to be nothing to
do with the MIME type set on the datastream itself (application/msword
in both cases). Is there a 'fix' for this out there please? Was there
a reason for this apparent change?
