WHAT IS MIME

MIME abreviation

MIME is an abreviation for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension
Although MIME, is often described as just a specification for enhancing the capabilities of Internet electronic mail, it has been applied to many aspects of the internet.

MIME protocol

My perception of MIME is from the perspective of a programmer. The easiest way to view MIME is as "electronic containers". If your interested you might want to check out a couple of the rather aged RFC's concerning MIME RFC 821 and RFC 822

MIME containers can transport a wide variety of data objects including ...

Multiple objects within a single message
Text with unlimited line length or overall length
Character sets other than 7-bit ASCII
Multi-font messages
Binary or application-specific files
Images, audio, video and multi-media messages
Automatic Downloads in browsers.
