[horde] Warning message from Magic.php when attaching a file in IMP compose window

[Robin John West]

Thanks for the response Jan. If I was using the PHP magic mime  
extension, wouldn't it say so on the test.php page? Right now it says  
"No" for both "MIME Magic Support (fileinfo)" and "MIME Magic Support  
(mime_magic)".

Also the error message seems to be coming directly from where Horde  
reads from its own mime.magic.php and my test script also seems to  
reproduce the error while reading from that file.

I think I will try installing the PHP magic mime extension and see if  
it gets around this error. Thanks for your help.
