MIME，多功能Internet 邮件扩充服务，是Multipurpose Internet Email Extension的简写，它最初只被用于电子邮件系统，目的是为了在发送电子邮件时附加多媒体数据，让邮件客户程序能根据其类型进行处理。 后来MIME被应用于HTTP协议中，使得HTTP传输的不仅是普通的HTML文本，而且可以说多媒体数据类型。
MIME类型是用来指定采用某种扩展名的文件用哪一种应用程序来打开。当该扩展名文件被访问的时候，浏览器会自动使用指定应用程序来打开。例如，.xls扩展名的文件用Excel来打开。多用于指定一些客户端自定义的文件名，以及一些媒体文件打开方式。
下面是来源于网络收集并整理的“MIME类型大全”，这还有一份fedora14下的apache MIME配置文件，覆盖面还是比较全的，web开发过程中如果需要输出http head时可以参考使用。
