I am trying to send an email using Simple Java Mail API. The email will contain a CSV ZIP file attachment. Should I use text/csv or application/zip for the mime type of the attachment?

A zip file is a zip file, no matter what it contains.



It should be application/zip.



It is not a CSV file, if you tried to parse it as CSV it would fail. It is not text/csv.
