MIME permits labeling and aggregating objects into complex hierarchies. 
Support for MIME mechanisms is not universal although it is growing 
quickly, so that gateways are often required to translate portions of a 
MIME object into its constituent pieces, that is, as independent 
attachments.                                                               

Internet-Drafts are available by anonymous FTP.  Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address.  After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
     "get draft-crocker-wrap-00.txt".
A URL for the Internet-Draft is:
ftp://ds.internic.net/internet-drafts/draft-crocker-wrap-00.txt
 
Internet-Drafts directories are located at:
                                                
     o  Africa:  ftp.is.co.za                    
                                                
     o  Europe:  nic.nordu.net

Internet-Drafts are also available by mail.
                                                
Send a message to:  mailserv@ds.internic.net. In the body type: 
     "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-crocker-wrap-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.



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