The "Content encoding field" only controls the "charset=" part of the
"Content-Type" header being sent.
Currently, if only a file name is specified, that file is sent as the
only content of the "post body", if it is a HTTP POST request.
The Content-type is set to application/x-www-form-urlencoded in that case.
Maybe it should be changed, so that it uses the mimetype specified for
the file ?
I.e., if filename and mimetype, but not "file field name" is specified,
then the file is sent as HTTP POST body, with Content-Type header equal
to the mimetype ?
If others think that is a good idea, I can easily make a patch for that.
I suggest you raise an enhancement bugzilla request, so that your
request does not get lost.

I would like to send an HTTP Post referencing a file which contains the
body contents, however I would like to set the Content-Type in the POST
header to "Content-Type: text/plain"
Is this possible?
There seems to be a content encoding field on the HTTP request sampler
GUI screen, but no way to change it.
Thanks,
Alex
