This memo provides a mechanism whereby messages conforming to the
"MIME" (RFC 1521) 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 memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
This memo does not specify an Internet standard of any kind.
Discussion and suggestions for improvement are requested.
Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
