            Bug ID: 310852
          Severity: wishlist
           Version: 4.9.3
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Better icons for "application/octet-stream"
                    attachments
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: pancho.mz at riseup.net
          Hardware: Chakra
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: kmail2

Some programs (such as Lotus Notes) tend to attach files even of well-known
MIME types as "application/octet-stream".
kmail obviously manages to determine the MIME type of such a file by its
extension: it correctly associates the application for opening the file, and
when saving to the filesystem it changes the MIME type to "application/pdf",
"application/msword" or whatever.
So it would be really nice and should be no problem to display the specific
icon instead of just some default "?" icon.

Reproducible: Always
