Preventing Access to MIME Types

Use this procedure if you need to prevent users from attaching certain types of files in the Infor Rich Client. You have a choice of deleting a MIME type, or changing the status to either Inactive or Blocked. If a MIME type is inactive, users will see it in lists, but cannot use it. If a MIME type is blocked, users will not see it listed.

Several MIME types are blocked by default, but can be overridden. The exceptions are the following, which are blocked and can not be overridden:

  • application/x-csh
  • application/x-javascript
  • application/xhtml+xml
  • text/html
  • application/java-archive
