Emacs MIME
**********
This manual documents the libraries used to compose and display MIME
messages.
This manual is directed at users who want to modify the behavior of
the MIME encoding/decoding process or want a more detailed picture of
how the Emacs MIME library works, and people who want to write functions
and commands that manipulate MIME elements.
MIME is short for “Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions”. This
standard is documented in a number of RFCs; mainly RFC2045 (Format of
Internet Message Bodies), RFC2046 (Media Types), RFC2047 (Message Header
Extensions for Non-ASCII Text), RFC2048 (Registration Procedures),
RFC2049 (Conformance Criteria and Examples). It is highly recommended
that anyone who intends writing MIME-compliant software read at least
RFC2045 and RFC2047.
This file documents the Emacs MIME interface functionality.
