[imp] How to view tif files with imp?

[bill parducci]

this is odd since mime.php3 (the one in ./horde/imp/config) has the following
entry:

$mime_actions['image/'] =
array(
      'action'       => 'default',
      'function'     => 'mime_action_images',
      'view'         => true,
      'download'     => true,
      'icon'         => 'mime_image.gif'
      );


if i read this right, ANY mime type of image/* (and tiff files are typically
known as 'image/TIFF') should be both viewable inline and downloadable.  (i have
never seen an image actually show up in line, but i have used the other two
viewing options sucessfully) 

this seems to indicate that the image may not be identified as such. can you
look at the message source of one of your notes and confirm what the mime type
is? (do not go by file name)

if it IS image/TIFF, can you click on the file name in the attachemnet area of
the note and have it pop up? (which means imp agrees that it is of type
'image/') 

if yes, and all you get is junk, then your browser's mime types need to be
fixed.  if no, then your imp installation is wanked (beyond my paltry imp tech
support abilities)

that's all i can think of...
