    Description

      We use Tika to detect the attachment content type but we rely only on the attachment file name. This means that if you upload a text file named "foo" (no extension) and call:

      $doc.getAttachment('foo').mimeType

      you will get "application/octet-stream". We can improve the accuracy by using the attachment content when the file name extension is unknown.
