curl_mime_type man page
curl_mime_type ā set a mime part's content type curl_mime_type(3) sets a mime part's content type. part is the part's handle to assign the content type to. mimetype points to the nul-terminated file mime type string; it may be set to NULL to remove a previously attached mime type. The mime type string is copied into the part, thus the associated storage may safely be released or reused after call. Setting a part's type twice is valid: only the value set by the last call is retained. In the absence of a mime type and if needed by the protocol specifications, a default mime type is determined by the context: As long as at least one of HTTP, SMTP or IMAP is enabled.
