A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : The MIME Application/Multiplexed Content-type
Author(s) : R. Herriot
Filename : draft-herriot-application-multiplexed-02.txt
Pages : 21
Date : 04-Jun-01
The Application/Multiplexed content-type, like the Multipart/Related
content-type, provides a mechanism for representing objects that
consist of multiple components. An Application/Multiplexed entity
contains a sequence of chunks. Each chunk contains a MIME message or
a part of a MIME message. Each MIME message represents a component of
the compound object, just as a body part of a Multipart/Related
entity represents a component.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-herriot-application-multiplexed-02.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
