     1.4 +MIME types are used in many applications (for instance as part of e-mail
     1.5 +and HTTP traffic) to indicate the type of content which is transmitted or expected.
     1.6 +See RFC2045 at https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2045.txt
     1.7 +
     1.8 +Sometimes detailed knowledge about a mime-type is needed, however this module
     1.9 +only knows about the file name extensions which relate to some filetype.
    1.10 +It can also be used to produce the right format: types which are not registered
    1.11 +at IANA need to use 'x-' prefixes.
    1.12 +
    1.13 +This object administers a huge list of known mime-types, combined from various
    1.14 +sources.
    1.15 +For instance, it contains all IANA types and the knowledge of Apache.
    1.16 +Probably the most complete table on the net!
