Hi OOzy

The content of the an attribute of type file is an ezbinaryfile object which has the property mime_type. See also here http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_8/reference/objects/ezbinaryfile

Thus you should be able to fetch the mimetype like this (not tested...)
{$node.data_map.file_attribute.content.mime_type}
