Details
If you go to:
http://gemal.dk/browserspy/upload.html
and upload a file fx called c:\temp\adr.ldif
and you dont have any program that uses the extension .ldif thereby making it a
"unknown" file type in Windows
you'll get the following info with Mozilla:
Content-Type = unknown
But with Netscape 4.x you dont get any content type.
With IE you get
Content-Type = text/plain
since IE seems to be doing some file sniffing.
The file adr.ldif is a exported ldif text file from the adress book in Netscape 4.x

Isn't "Content-Type: unknown" illegal?
Summary: Unknown filetype is sending content-type "unknown" → Mozilla is sending "Content-Type: unknown" when uploading unknown filetype

This is a duplicate. It's been fixed recently.
And there are thoughts on using a byte-scanner to determine the mime-type if
it's not known.

"unknown" files get's uploaded as "application/octet-stream".
