That would tell the browser that the incoming file is an 'undefined
executable' via HTTP.  That MIME type is for SMTP, yes?

Regardless, its far better to genuinely match the MIME type to what
the file really is.  Back in the day, if you wanted to force a save
dialog you used 'application/unknown' and sent the thing as an
attachment.  Unfortunately a Windows security update killed that
pretty much dead, IIRC.  It was convenient, but sloppy coding.
