Example I have this line in /usr/local/etc/mime.types (straight from Mutt tarball): | application/x-tar-gz tgz tar.gz And attaching your file shows [applica/x-tar-gz, base64, 1,4K]. > This is on an Ubuntu Dapper system, but with the Debian mutt package I have no idea who is responsible for the mime.types file(s). Perhaps the "mime-support" or such package? Please feel free to reassign or close where/if applicable. In the meantime you can add the said line to ~/.mime.types Bye!
