User-agents rarely send meaningful mime types except for the PUT request
(which is rarely used except for WebDAV).

Only very few special applications send somewhat meaningful mime-types
in their requests.

To see what mime types is sent by the user-agent you need to enable
log_mime_hdrs.

The mime type of the reply from the server is logged in access.log.

To block reply mime types you need to use the rep_mime_type acl in
http_reply_access (cannot be used in http_access, the information is not
yet known when http_access is evaluated).
