Message/External-Body Content-ID Access Type
RFC 1873, “Message/External-Body Content-ID Access Type”, is an Experimental document published in December 1995 by E. Levinson, J. Clark. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The existing MIME Content-Type Message/External-Body access-types allow a MIME entity (body-part) to refer to an object that is not in the message by specifying how to access that object. The Content-ID access method described in this document provides the capability to refer to an object within the message. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
