I am extremely skeptical that mime has anything to do with the
problem. I would be extremely surprised if the software on the other
end does not support it and if it did not then you would probably be
told so. I am quite sure it has to do with the file that was sent.
Somehow it got messed up on the sending end. Mine have always gone
with no problem.
