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

[Robin John West]

Found this while searching around, sounds like the exact same problem:

http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5305046

So it may be specific to the Sun CoolStack package we're using. We are  
on 1.3.1 but clearly we're still seeing a problem that sounds very  
similar to this.
