Subject: default mime for attaching files
Date: Thu, 08 Feb 2007 18:52:38 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87zm7op2y1.fsf@patagonia.sebmags.homelinux.org> (raw)

Hi,

I often need to attach tar.gz archives in messages, and noticed that
whenever I do 'C-c C-a' (mml-attach-file), I'm faced with the default
"application/octet-stream".  I don't understand much about mime-types, but
I gather that tar.gz files should be specified as "application/x-gzip".
Browsing 'M-x customize-group mime' I can't find some relevant variable to
set a default (and possibly other files) for files suffixed *.tar.gz.  Any
suggestions would be welcome.


Cheers,

-- 
Seb
