Comment (by donn):
Keep both types, for sure. I'm just saying that the sniffing should
always return "text/html", just like httpd always says "text/html" when it
serves up a .html file, regardless of what's in it.
We can deal with it at the application level by applying the type we get
from email or httpd, as you say. We're doing that because email & httpd
have got it right. They haven't searched the contents and discovered
evidence of xhtml etc. They call it all text/html because that's what we
call an .html file. The sniffing detection is not only difficult, it's
inherently wrong.
