Hello, I've done some testing. With a test-script (found in your previous thread) I can see that the file (clock.vi) has the mime-type: application/octet-stream So my browser is telling imp the correct mime-type. But why is it then encoded as text/plain? Is this a bug in imp or have I done something wrong?
PS: you can download clock.vi and use the upload-script on http://users.khbo.be/steeman/check_mime.html version of horde: 3.1.7 version of imp: 4.1.6 fileinfo installes Philip Daniel A.
