The rapid growth of the Internet and the increasing number of 
Internet users have led to a wide deployment of network edge caching 
proxies. These systems have been very successful in accelerating Web 
content delivery and reducing the load on origin Web servers.  
However, the specific role of these network edge caching proxies as 
a gateway between Web users and content providers suggests utilizing 
them for intelligent services beyond simple caching.

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
