>Description:


Some X11 mail apps depends on this port , for example mail/sylpheed 
& mail/sylpheed-claws, but they look for mime.types file in 
/usr/X11R6/etc/ not in /usr/local/etc/. This results that they don`t
recognize files by extension and don`t set mime type as they 
supposed to. 


>How-To-Repeat:





>Fix:


This should do the trick :
ln -s /usr/local/etc/mime.types /usr/X11R6/etc/mime.types

Is this sounds ok?
