Add docx mime type to Alfresco v2.1.0

[jfeyen]

Hi,

When docx and other office document are openend with Internet Explorer they will open a .zip file. In firefox it works.
I changed first on Alfresco level then on Tomcat level. None of this helps:

Do you think the mimetype is wrong?  Or do you think there's a problem with your I.E. settings?  

First thing to check is the mimetype of your content property in alfresco.

Hi Mr. Rogers,

The content type is :
Content Type: Octet Stream
   Encoding: UTF-8

I has something to do with the mimetype of the server. If I open files from other webservers with docx it works.
So it has nothing to do with IE.

Thanks
