A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.                                                               

       Title     : Communicating Presentation Information in Internet 
                   Messages:  The Content-Disposition Header

This memo provides a mechanism whereby messages conforming to the [RFC 
1521] ("MIME") specification can convey presentational information.  It 
specifies a new "Content-Disposition" header, optional and valid for any 
[RFC 1521] entity ("message" or "body part"). Two values for this header 
are described in this memo; one for the ordinary linear presentation of the
body part, and another to facilitate the use of mail to transfer files. It 
is expected that more values will be defined in the future, and procedures 
are defined for extending this set of values.                   

This document is intended as an extension to [RFC 1521]. As such, 
the reader is assumed to be familiar with [RFC 1521], [RFC 1522], and 
[RFC 822]. The information presented herein supplements but does 
not replace that found in those documents.

Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-dorner-content-header-00.txt".
							
NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net 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.
							
For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
							

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant Mail Reader 
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the Internet-Draft.
