Nmh uses file(1) to look into a file to determine what the MIME type is

was a netnews file?  Because of these lines in the magic(5) database:

If I try to attach my .mh_profile, the MIME type comes out as
application/x-symlink: it's a symlink because it makes it easier to
keep it under version control. Otherwise, the file contents are fully
expanded for the attachment. We should perhaps be adding the -L (or
--dereference) option in combination with --mime-type.
