                    // connects to default app.config
                    var config = serverManager.GetApplicationHostConfiguration();
                    var staticContent = config.GetSection("system.webServer/staticContent");
                    var mimeMap = staticContent.GetCollection();

                    foreach (var mimeType in mimeMap)
                    {

                        if (((String)mimeType["fileExtension"]).Equals(fileExtension, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
                            return true;

                    }

                }
                return false;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            { 
                Console.WriteLine("An exception has occurred: \n{0}", ex.Message);
                Console.Read();
            }

            return false;

        }

I think the right answer is a combination of Steve Morgan's and Serguei's answers. That's how Internet Explorer does it. The pinvoke call to FindMimeFromData works for only 26 hard-coded mime types. Also, it will give ambigous mime types (such as text/plain or application/octet-stream) even though there may exist a more specific, more appropriate mime type. If it fails to give a good mime type, you can go to the registry for a more specific mime type. The server registry could have more up-to-date mime types.

这个答案是作者的答案(Richard Gourlay)的副本，但改进了解决iis8 / win2012上的问题(其中函数会导致应用程序池崩溃)，基于Rohland的评论指向http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/urlmon.findmimefromdata

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

...

public static string GetMimeFromFile(string filename)
{

    if (!File.Exists(filename))
        throw new FileNotFoundException(filename + " not found");

    const int maxContent = 256;

    var buffer = new byte[maxContent];
    using (var fs = new FileStream(filename, FileMode.Open))
    {
        if (fs.Length >= maxContent)
            fs.Read(buffer, 0, maxContent);
        else
            fs.Read(buffer, 0, (int) fs.Length);
    }

    var mimeTypePtr = IntPtr.Zero;
    try
    {
        var result = FindMimeFromData(IntPtr.Zero, null, buffer, maxContent, null, 0, out mimeTypePtr, 0);
        if (result != 0)
        {
            Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(mimeTypePtr);
            throw Marshal.GetExceptionForHR(result);
        }

        var mime = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(mimeTypePtr);
        Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(mimeTypePtr);
        return mime;
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        if (mimeTypePtr != IntPtr.Zero)
        {
            Marshal.FreeCoTaskMem(mimeTypePtr);
        }
        return "unknown/unknown";
    }
}

    [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPWStr)] string pwzUrl,

@Steve Morgan和@Richard Gourlay，这是一个很好的解决方案，谢谢你们。一个小缺点是，当文件中的字节数为255或以下时，mime类型有时会产生“application/octet-stream”，这对于期望产生“text/plain”的文件来说有点不准确。对于这种情况，我更新了你原来的方法如下:

如果文件中的字节数小于或等于255，并且推导出的mime类型是"application/octet-stream"，那么创建一个新的字节数组，该数组由重复n次的原始文件字节组成，直到字节总数为>= 256。然后重新检查新字节数组上的mime-type。

修改方法:
