if you go to the URL
http://www.certificates-australia.com.au/general/cert_search_health.shtml
you should be able to import the ca certificates if you select the netscape mime
type radio button and then press the download button. The mime type served by
the web server is correct (application/x-x509-ca-cert) but mozilla asks for
save/run application for it. A site with the same mime type but without downlod
button works well:
http://trust.web.de/root.htm
Mozilla should also support (preferably) the application/pkix-cert,
application/pkixcmp and application/pkix-crl mime type over
application/x-x509-email-cert and application/x-x509-ca-cert because the latter
ones are just invented by netscape while application/pkix* is the official IANA
mime type name.

We already have another bug where Nelson explains the special requirements for
using the pkix type, we should dupe this bug against it.

just the IANA mime type note dups the bud, the main bug report is not a dup.

The way you are using to deliver the certificate is a bit uncommon.
In order to look at the response sent by your server, I simulated the button with the following command on Linux:
curl --include -F "DN=cn=SecureNet Health OCA,o=securenet limited,c=AU" -F downloadType=caCert -F "filename=SecureNet Health OCA.crt" -F healthDir=true -F mimeType=application/x-x509-ca-cert http://www.certificates-australia.com.au/cgi-bin/download.pl
The response sent is:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2005 00:15:22 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) mod_perl/1.25
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="SecureNet Health OCA.crt"
Expires: Thu, 17 Nov 2005 00:15:23 GMT
pragma: no-cache
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Content-Type: application/x-x509-ca-cert
That means, your server is explicitly telling us: the data should be handled as a file attachment.
There is a general discussion going on in bug 185618, how such a scenario should be handled.
As a workaround, if you can influence the server, make it stop sending the
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="SecureNet Health OCA.crt"
line.
