The EDI-INT AS1, AS2 and AS3 messages were designed specifically for
the transport of EDI documents.  Since multiple interchanges could be
placed within a single EDI document, there was not a need for sending
multiple EDI documents in a single message.  As adoption of EDI-INT
grew, other uses developed aside from single EDI document transport.
Some transactions required multiple attachments to be interpreted
together and stored in a single message.  This informational draft
describes how multiple documents, including non-EDI payloads, can be
attached and transmitted in a single EDI-INT transport message.  The
attachments are stored within the MIME Multipart/Related structure.
A minimal list of content-types to be supported as attachments is
provided.
