Hi,
Another solution would be to store the Content-type along with the
attachment in Apache .asis format. The .asis format is really kinda nice -
I've been playing with animated PNG files by cat'ing several PNG "frames"
into a single .asis file with appropriate Content-type between each frame.
A person can even combine multiple attachments into a single file this way.
