Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part One RFC ( Request for Comments ) 2045, November 1996. Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions ( MIME ) Part One: Format of Internet Message Bodies. The MIME-Version Header Field, the Content-Type Header Field, the Content-Transfer-Encoding Header Field, the Content-ID Header Field, the Content-Description Header Field. RFC 822 ( Standard for ARPA Internet Text Messages ) was intended to specify a format for text messages. As such, non-text messages, such as multimedia messages that might include audio or images, are simply not mentioned. Even in the case of text, however, RFC 822 is inadequate for the needs of mail users whose languages require the use of character sets richer than US-ASCII. Since RFC 822 does not specify mechanisms for mail containing audio, video, Asian language text, or even text in most European languages, additional specifications are needed.
