Hi all: PC-Pine 4.63 this time. Can someone explain to me (again) why, after editing mailcap.sam with application/octet-stream;E:\Installers\IrfanView\i_view32.exe %s application/*;E:\Installers\IrfanView\i_view32.exe %s */*;E:\Installers\IrfanView\i_view32.exe %s and restarting PC-Pine, I still cant open a JPG mis-labeled as application/octet-stream? I suppose it's a security precaution? I was hoping that mailcap would have taken care of this. (Failing that, I need a way to scan incoming attachments for incorrect MIME types and fix them on the fly. But I suppose that's a procmail- or-someother fix for my Solairs 9 box to perform.) Thanks Birl --- Please do not CC me responses to my own posts. I'll read the responses on the list.
