See RFC 2076 and draft-palme-mailext-headers-03.txt. Although there is no such on-line registry, IANA believes (or did believe based on mail with Jon Postel a few years ago) that it was its job to register such headers. Donald PS: Consider also news and http headers... PPS: I assume that by MIME headers you mean new values for * in content-*. There certainly are IANA on-line registries for content-types, etc., values.
