Definition

MIME type for the MIME type check during a virus scan.

Use

You can maintain lists of MIME types for virus scan profiles for the purpose of checking the correct MIME type during a virus scan.

Dependencies

You can maintain MIME types as one of the following:

  • <Mediatype>/<Subtype>
  • <Mediatype>/*
  • */*

The length of a MIME type is restricted to 64 characters and valid characters are the lower case letters a-z, the digits 0-9, the dot ("."), the plus ("+") and the dash ("-").

There is no value help for MIME types available in the SAP system. MIME types are currently defined in the Internet Request for Comments (RFC) documents RFC 2045 and RFC 2046 (this information is subject to obsolescence as time evolves).

The list of MIME types is evaluated if and only if the parameter CUST_CHECK_MIME_TYPE is maintained in the "Profile Configuration Parameters" area of the virus scan profile with value "1", and the evaluation of the profile configuration parameters is enabled in the header data of the virus scan profile.

By setting the parameter CUST_MIME_TYPES_ARE_BLACKLIST to value "1", you let the list of MIME types be interpreted as blacklist instead of whitelist.
