Could send have an option that makes an unrecognized mime type an error?
I assume you mean an unrecognized file extension, because the MIME types
are kinda arbitrary and new ones are being added all of the time.
Do you really want that? If a file is "unknown", the RFCs say that
the MIME type should fall back to application/octet-stream, and we do that.
I'm on the fence about the behavior where it attempts to auto-detect text,
but I see the utility there. I'm just trying to understand why this would
be a good thing; I think send should generally try really hard to work
unless there are errors in the transport system.
