Dear Sirs,

Since I don't know where to find an archive, I have to ask you for help 
about a question probably answered before.

How can I control file types of files served by httpd? For instance, I 
have the file FILE.GZ, which is an application/x-gzip type, but 
publicfile serves it as text/html, thus preventing browsers from opening 
the 'Save as' dialog. I really couldn't understand the information at 
<http://cr.yp.to/publicfile/filetypes.html>.

By the way, I don't want to change the letter case of files downloaded 
from other sources.


Regards,
