MIME

   The OpenVMS MIME utility is a standalone, user-mode, nonprivileged 
   utility that allows users to read and compose MIME encoded messages. 
   Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) encodes multiple file 
   and media types such as JPEG images, documents, audio, and plain text.

   A MIME-encoded message can be sent using various mail utilities and
   networks without losing its original content. The received MIME
   message is read, allowing message parts to be extracted into files 
   or to be viewed by the appropriate viewer or application.

   MIME messages sent or received using VMSMAIL must be extracted
   before they can be read and interpreted by the OpenVMS MIME utility.

   Detailed help is included inside the MIME utility. If MIME is 
   not already working at your DCL prompt, put the following line 
   into your LOGIN.COM file:

          $ MIME :== $SYS$SYSTEM:MIME.EXE

   Exit the LOGIN.COM file and enter @LOGIN. When this command 
   completes, you can invoke the MIME utility by entering MIME 
   at the DCL prompt:

          $ MIME
