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

       Title     : MIME Parameter Value and Encoded Words:  Character Sets,
                   Language, and Continuations

This memo defines extensions to the RFC MIME-IMB media type 
and RFC 1806 disposition parameter value mechanisms to 
provide (1) a means to specify parameter values in character sets 
other than US-ASCII,  (2) to specify the language to be used should 
the value be displayed, and (3) a continuation mechanism for long 
parameter values to avoid problems with header line wrapping.                                      
                
This memo also defines an extension to the encoded words defined in RFC 
MIME-HEADERS to allow the specification of the language to be used for 
display as well as the character set.

Send a message to:  [e-mail]. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-freed-pvcsc-01.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.



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