Webtool Foilset MultiPurpose Internet Mail Extension Data Format -- MIME

This material on the MIME (MultiPurpose Internet Mail Extension) data format was prepared by Wojtek Furmanski for the Spring 1995 Syracuse Course CPS600 on "Technologies for WebWindows". We describe the MIME format which is basis of simple and extended electronic mail services. Note MIME is closely related to HTTP Protocol described elsewhere. We also review the Internet process for discussing and setting standards including RFC-822 document for electronic mail.
