Description Aaron Williams 2003-01-15 02:19:27 UTC 
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.1.0 (RC6))
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
OS:          SunOS (sun4u) release 5.7

When I mail a web page to someone using Location->Send File in Konqueror the mime type of the document always defaults to Unknown application/octet-stream.  The web page being mailed should inherit the mime type in Konqueror, in this case text/html. The same thing happens if I try and send a JPEG file, instead of image/jpeg the mime type is Unknown application/octet-stream.

This has been a problem since 3.0.x and continues through 3.1rc6.

Actually this looks like a bug in kmail.  After studying kmail I see the option "--attach <url>".

Moved this bug to kmail as bug 53009.
