	Title		: Multiple Attachments for EDI-INT

The EDIINT AS1, AS2 and AS3 message 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.

In the body type:

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
