Message Context for Internet Mail
RFC 3458, “Message Context for Internet Mail”, is a Proposed Standard document published in January 2003 by E. Burger, E. Candell, C. Eliot, G. Klyne. It has since been updated by RFC 3938. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo describes a new RFC 2822 message header, "Message-Context". This header provides information about the context and presentation characteristics of a message. A receiving user agent (UA) may use this information as a hint to optimally present the message. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
