[twsocket] Email file attachments with custom file type/extension

2011-01-13 Thread Arno Garrels 
Hi,

I registered my own custom file type/extension in Windows.
The associated application is started when I double click
such files in Windows Explorer.

However when I try to open such files attached to an e-mail
in Outlook Express I get an error message that there is no
application associated for this operation, Thunderbird works
fine.

My first guess was that the MIME Content-Type has to be registered.
So I added in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.fxd\ value REG_SZ 
Content Type = application/myapp 
and in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\ a key 
application/myapp with a value REG_SZ Extension = .fxd,
however no luck. My TSmtpCli application sends the attachment 
with Content-Type: application/myapp;.

Any ideas?

Please forget my previous message, the problem was sitting in front
of the monitor named Arno. Actually there was no default open
action registered.
