F Messages in the VMSMAIL MAIL files can be extracted into text filesD and then be read and interpreted using MIME. MIME formatted textC files can be composed using MIME, and then sent using VMSMAIL toE OpenVMS and other systems that have a MIME utility or MIME capable MAIL application. 2 _Getting_StartedG The MIME utility is a tool for reading MIME-formatted messages that D are delivered in VMSMAIL messages. SMTP/MIME based mail systems, @ such as the TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS mail system, deposit E incoming MIME-formatted messages into the VMSMAIL message store. @ To read and extract binary attachments in such messages, use @ VMSMAIL to extract the message into a text file; then run the, MIME utility to interpret its contents.  B This approach would allow MIME to be easily backported and usedA on previous versions of OpenVMS, without changing the existing VMSMAIL environment.3 Invoking_MIME8 A foreign symbol is used to invoke MIME, for example,# $ MIME :== $SYS$SYSTEM:MIME.EXED Note that a file name can be provided as a parameter to MIME, butC MIME opens that file for READ access only. No file modifications will be allowed. / See Composing_Messages for more information. 2 Composing_MessagesG MIME provides basic composition commands that allow you to create a B text file in MIME compliant format: NEW, OPEN/DRAFT, ADD, EDIT.F Use the NEW command, which runs the editor specified in the VMSMAILH user profile, or specify the editor to use to create a text message. ; You are prompted for a filename if one is not specified.* MIME> NEW [/edit="edit/teco"] [filename] G Or you can use the OPEN/DRAFT command to continue editing a previous, MIME mess age that was composed and saved.# MIME> OPEN/DRAFT [filename]E Then use the ADD and REMOVE commands to add attachments (or parts)C to the message or to remove them. Attachments are such as binaryC image files, sound files, and compound documents, and also text.E MIME> ADD filename /CONTENT_TYPE="image/gif" /ENCODING=base64 MIME> REMOVE nC Where "n" is the attachment number. Use the LIST command to list) attachments and their characteristics.4 Use the EDIT command to edit the text attachment. MIME> EDIT n [/EDIT="edit/tpu"]C Where "n" is the attachment number. Use the LIST command to listE attachments and their characteristics. The editor can be specifiedA with the /EDIT qualifier or /NOEDIT to avoid the edit session.B Lastly, execute the SAVE command to write the composed outgoing MIME text file. MIME> SAVE B Note that the MIME command SHOW FILE_TYPES lists the file typesB and their default settings for the ADD command. Other optionalD file types: the file extension, its Content-Type/subtype, and the= encoding to use, are defined in MIME$FILETYPES.DAT file. : For more help, see the ADD command and SHOW FILE_TYPES  MIME$FILETYPES.DAT command.2 Extracting_AttachmentsD A message is opened for read access in one of the following ways: $ MIME filename.xxx MIME> OPEN filename.xxxC MIME decodes the attachments (or parts) of the MIME encoded mailG message when opened , storing them as temporary files in your defined MAIL directory. H If the file is opened with the OPEN command, MIME automatically listsF the attachments of the MIME encoded mail message. You can also listC the attachments and their characteristics (content-type/subtype,> encoding scheme, file name ...) with the following command: MIME> LISTB Attachments, such as binary .JPG images, documents, spreadsheetF files, audio, DECsound, and text attachments, can be extracte d into= their native file format using the following MIME command:' MIME> EXTRACT /ATTACHMENT=n [filename] H Where "n" is the attachment number listed with the MIME LIST command.I In a single part message, no attachment number is displayed. For this ' case specify attachment number one. G The filename is optional, unless MIME cannot determine the file nameF from the attachment information. In that case, MIME will prompt youE for a file name. The attachment is stored  as a file in the default directory.* See HELP EXTRACT for more information. 2 Mailing_MIME_MessagesD Whenever OpenVMS MAIL is used to send a MIME encoded file, if theE address in not a TCP/IP mail address, MAIL will add an extra blankC line between it's mail headers and the message. This is standardB for OpenVMS MAIL to separate its mail headers from the message.@ Consequently, this blank line may pose a problem to most MIMEF capable applications because it separat es the MIME headers as well.D However, if a TCP/IP mail address is used, the TCP/IP for OpenVMSA SMTP service will send the MIME encoded mail with the properlyA formatted (RFC822) mail message and MIME headers. A blank lineF will properly separate the mail/MIME headers from the message body.J An alternative is to use the DCL command line to send the mail, (e.g.):L $ MAIL/NOSELF MimeFile.TXT smtp%"user@domain.com" /subject="Sending MIME"K Note that using SMTP for MIME mai l requires TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS , 5.0A + an SMTP patch or a later version. E There are other problems with SMTP HEADER position that can affectG MIME mail, please see Restrictions section for further information.  3 RestrictionsD On some SMTP/MIME mail systems, the message headers can be moved ? from the beginning of the message, where they would normally? appear, to the end of the message, as a convenience to the; reader. Unfortunately, this makes it impossib le for MIMEC interpreters such as the MIME utility to interpret the contents< of the message. If SMTP messages are reformatted in this= manner, see the system administrator about disabling thisB feature so that SMTP headers appear in their original positionD at the beginning of the message. For TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS,2 you can disable this feature using the command:# SET CONFIGURATION SMTP/OPTIONS=TOP= The MIME utility does not fully integrate with the VMSMAILB  user interface to send MIME messages over the internet. You canD use VMSMAIL to send MIME messages created and saved with the MIMED utility. Those messages can then be interpreted using MIME at theE destination OpenVMS host or with a MIME capable reader on another  system platform. C As of TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS version V5.0A, a known problemD exists where an extra NEWLINE character corrupts the MIME messageE sent with SMTP. MIME messages sent with TCP/IP V5.0A and pr ior may? not be interpreted correctly by MIME programs other than theE OpenVMS MIME Utility. This problem was corrected in later versions; of TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS or with a patch to V5.0A.@ SFF could be used as an alternative on systems prior to TCPIP V5.0A and the SMTP Patch. * $ r TCPIP$SYSTEM:TCPIP$SMTP_SFF.EXEL Usage: SMTP_SFF infile_name [-log logfile_name] [-loglevel log_level]N infile_name : Name of text input file containing SMTP mail to send.F logfile_name : Name of text log file to log diagnostics to.  (Default SYS$OUTPUT).J log_level : Debug log level. 1 or 0 at this time. (Default 0)B See the TCP/IP Service release notes and documentation for more information.2 MIME_Procedures_and_BATCHD MIME will work properly with command procedures and in BATCH mode2 provided the following guidelines are utilized.= When a foreign symbol is used to invoke MIME, for example,# $ MIME  :== $SYS$SYSTEM:MIME.EXEE a file name can be provided as a parameter to MIME. But, MIME willE OPEN that file for READ access only. No file modifications will be allowed. ? The NEW command creates a MIME message and by default, opensA a text editor for editing or composing that MIME message. MIMED invokes the editor defined in the user's MAIL profile by the MAIL SET EDIT command. ? The /[NO]EDIT="edit/teco" qualifier allows manipulating thisC default behav ior. Use NEW/NOEDIT to disable starting the editor.D Use /EDIT="edit/edt" to override the editor specified by the MAILE profile. Please see the NEW and EDIT command for more information.E An alternative is the OPEN/DRAFT command. This allows modifying a C previously processed MIME text file that was saved with MIME andD includes the MIME headers. This file can be blank or contain textF and possibly originated with the NEW command. Now other attachmentsF (or message parts) can be added to the basic MIME message structure with ADD command.2 Viewing_MessagesF MIME operates as a standalone utility to interpret MIME-formatted J messages received by VMSMAIL. Use the VMSMAIL command EXTRACT/NOHEADER F to extract a MIME-formatted message received by VMSMAIL into a text file. MAIL> EXTRACT/NOHEADER filenameD A message is opened for read access in one of the following ways: $ MIME filename.xxx MIME> OPEN filename.xxxF The OPEN command opens and decodes the message file, in preparation for file viewing.2 Use the MIME READ command to display the file. MIME> READ3 Notes_on_Content-typesF Not all attachments (content-type/subtypes, such as .DOC and .XLS),? can be displayed with the OpenVMS MIME utility. OpenVMS MIMEB displays only the attachments that have been defined and have aB native OpenVMS viewer application installed and associated with% that defined content-type/subtype.A Example OpenVMS n ative viewer applications include NETSCAPE toF display .HTML and .HTM attachments, and Freeware X-VIEW application9 to display image types .JPG, .GIF, and .JPEG subtypes.E Also note that foreign commands must be defined for invoking theseE native viewer application images. This is so OpenVMS MIME can pass@ a filename (string) representing the attachment to the viewer application, for example:G NETSCAPE :== $ SYS$MANAGER:NETSCAPE-EXPORT-ALPHA-V303C4R-JAVA-GOLD.EXE XV == "$ SYS$LIBRARY:XV.EXE"D Content-types/subtypes are defined internally by OpenVMS MIME and& in optional MIME$MAILCAP.DAT files.B The MIME command SHOW CONTENT lists the content types of files D that can be displayed with the READ command. Other optional types( are defined in MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file. MIME> SHOW CONTENT_TYPEF See the READ command and SHOW CONTENT MIME$MAILCAP.DAT command for 2 more information and its security implications.wwh7iֻ1 ADD  Format: ADD filenameE When editing a message draft or new message, this command attachesH the specified file to the current message. MIME maintains a list of F known file types associated with various file name extensions; for B example, files that end in ".TXT" are treated as text. Use the B SHOW FILE_TYPES command to display this list of file types. To D override the default file type associated with any file, use one ! of the ADD command qualifiers. 2 /BINARY7  Sets Content-Type to "application/octet-stream" and ; Content-Transfer-Encoding to "Base64". This format can 8 be used to represent an arbitrary binary data stream.2 /CONTENT_TYPE /CONTENT_TYPE="type/subtype"H Overrides the default Content-Type and sets it to the specified type I and subtype (enclosed in quotation marks). See RFC 1700 for a list of H registered media types and subtypes. Examples of types include text, F image, message, application, audio, and so fort h. Subtypes specify > the type of content, such as jpg, bmp, gif, html, or plain. 2 /ENCODING /ENCODING_TYPE=encoding-typeE Overrides the default Content-Transfer-Encoding and sets it to theC specified type. Permissible types are: 7Bit, 8Bit, Base64, or  Quoted-Printable.B Experimentation may be necessary to achieve the desired result.A However, it is suggested to use Base64 for most binary files, $ such as JPG and GIF image files. 2 /MESSAGE> Sets Conten!t-Type to "message/rfc822", indicating that the C attachment contains the text of a message to be forwarded as an ? attachment. Content-Transfer-Encoding for the attachment is  set to 7Bit.2 /TEXTH Sets Content-Type to "text/plain" and sets Content-Transfer-Encoding to 7Bit. 2 ExampleE MIME> add /content_type ="image/gif" /encoding=base64 filename.gifC This adds an "IMAGE" attachment with a subtype of "GIF" using anC encoding scheme of "BASE64" for the "file "name.gif" file. Use theF SHOW FILE_TYPES command to display the list of file types and their settings. 3 Example MIME> add myfile.txtA This would add the file "myfile.txt" with the default settings: specified by the program and also any found in the fileC MIME$FILETYPES.DAT file. The current default settings for a text@ (.TXT) file are: the content type set to "text/plain;" with aD content type parameter of "charset=ISO-8859-1" and an encoding ofF "7bit/8bit". #Use the SHOW FILE_TYPES command to display the list of! file types and their settings.wwh7iֻ1 CLOSE Format: CLOSEL Closes the current message, if any. If you have not saved your changes, H the program prompts you to save the message to a file before closing.wwh7iֻ1 EDIT" Format: EDIT attachment-number H Invokes the user's default text editor to edit the specified message  attachment. 2 /EDIT  /EDIT="edit/teco": /E $DIT="@ system$manger:mime_message_create_script.com" /NOEDIT K Defines the editor or command procedure to be used for the current edit L session of a particular attachment number. Use /NOEDIT to bypass the edit session.J The /EDIT (or /NOEDIT) qualifier overrides the current text editor. The> current text editor is defined in the following precedence:+ o with the /EDIT or /NOEDIT qualifier K o as defined by the MAIL$EDIT logical (callable_[lse,edt,teco,tpu] %or J DCL command procedure filename). Refer to the OpenVMS User's Manual for more information.H o as defined in the SYS$MANAGER or user's MIME$MAILCAP.DAT with theI edit option. Refer to SHOW CONTENT_TYPE HELP section for examples. edit=lsedit %sF o set in the user's MAIL profile with the MAIL command set edit. > MIME reads the user's mail profile record when invoked., MAIL> set edit [lse,edt,teco,tpu] ' o MIME default editor& of EDIT/EDT C NOTE: The /NOEDIT is useful for formatting blank MIME messages, H or when a command procedure is used interractively or in BATCH  mode.B This can be used to avoid recursive command procedure invocation and process quota exhaustion.wwh7iֻ1 EXIT Format: EXIT F Terminates the current process. If a draft or new message is open F and has been modified, the program prompts you to save the message to a file before termin'ating.wwh7iֻ 1 EXTRACT: Format: EXTRACT/ATTACHMENT=attachment-number [filename]= NOTE: The /ATTACHMENT qualifier is required with EXTRACT. < This qualifier specifies the number of the attachment as < displayed by the LIST command. In a single part message, ; no attachment number is displayed. For this case specify attachment number one. > EXTRACT extracts the specified attachment to a file in its A native file format or in another format specified b (y the /FDL B qualifier. By default, the attachment is written to a file in : the default directory, using the name specified by the A Content-Disposition header of the attachment. If no file name @ is provided, the program prompts for one. A file name can be 9 specified in the command to override the value of the  Content-Disposition header.2 /FDL /FDL=filenameD Specifies a File Descriptor Language (FDL) definition file to useD when converting the specified attac )hment into an output file. UseC this qualifier when the desired file characteristics differ thanH those produced by the MIME utility default settings, or are different4 than those specified in the MIME$MAILCAP.DAT fileB Note that the /FDL qualifier will override the default FDL file7 specified in MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file (if one exists). E FDL files can be created with the ANALYZE/RMS/FDL command and also0 created and edited with the EDIT/FDL command.3 Example_to_Create_a_*FDLF One way to create a FDL file is from an existing file and type. For examplewwh7iֻ1 LIST Format: LIST< Displays a list of the components of the current message.wwh7iֻ1 NEW Format: NEW [filename]G Creates a new message. If a file is not specified, you are prompted H for a file name. The default text editor will then be invoked to add F the text portion of the message. Use the ADD and REMOVE command to ? add MIME enco+ded attachments, such as images or sound files.2 /EDIT  /EDIT="edit/teco": /EDIT="@ system$manger:mime_message_create_script.com" /NOEDIT K Defines the editor or command procedure to be used for the current edit 3 session. Use /NOEDIT to bypass the edit session.J The /EDIT (or /NOEDIT) qualifier overrides the current text editor. The> current text editor is defined in the following precedence:: o with the /EDIT="edit_command" or /NOEDIT qualifier K , o as defined by the MAIL$EDIT logical (callable_[lse,edt,teco,tpu] or J DCL command procedure filename). Refer to the OpenVMS User's Manual for more information.H o as defined in the SYS$MANAGER or user's MIME$MAILCAP.DAT with theI edit option. Refer to SHOW CONTENT_TYPE HELP section for examples. edit=lsedit %sF o set in the user's MAIL profile with the MAIL command set edit. > MIME reads the user's mail profile record when invoked., - MAIL> set edit [lse,edt,teco,tpu] ' o MIME default editor of EDIT/EDT C NOTE: The /NOEDIT is useful for formatting blank MIME messages, H or when a command procedure is used interractively or in BATCH  mode.B This can be used to avoid recursive command procedure invocation and process quota exhaustion.wwh7iֻ1 OPEN Format: OPEN filenameB Opens the specified ASCII text file containing a MIME-formattedB message. If no qualif.ier is specified, /READ (read-only) access& is the default message access mode.2 /DRAFTD Specifies that the file is a draft of a message that was composedE previously. This also implies write access to the file, to add or E remove attachments. Draft files do not contain header information * such as To:, From:, Cc:, and so forth. 4 See the NEW command to create a new MIME message.2 /READ@ Specifies that the file is to be opened for read access only.& The default is /the /READ qualifier.wwx^iֻ1 QUIT Format: QUITG Aborts the MIME editing session without saving the current message. wwx^iֻ1 READ Format: READC Displays the currently active MIME message as readable text with attachment markers. F If the MIME message is not active, an error message is displayed. AK message is active once it has been opened with the OPEN or NEW commands.M Any non-textual attachments (such as .JPG image 0s), must be read by helper I viewer applications. The MIME utility will automatically invoke these H viewers, if they are defined in the MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file with their I respective content type and subtype. A SHOW CONTENT_TYPE command will M display the current viewer applications and types defined for the system. H For more information, see the SHOW CONTENT MIME$MAILCAP.DAT command, 7 the HELP Overview, HELP OPEN, and HELP NEW commands. 2 /HEADER Format: READ /HEADE1RK Displays the currently active RFC 822 message mail headers that precede  the MIME encoded message. *! REMOVE may change to include /ATTACHMENTwwx^iֻ1 REMOVE# Format: REMOVE attachment-number= Deletes the specified attachment from the current message.> Attachments can be removed only from draft or new messages.B These are messages that can be modified and have write access.  L Attachments cannot be removed from messages that are opened for2 read-onlyA access. However, these attachments can be extracted to files. 1 For more information, see the EXTRACT command.wwx^iֻ1 SAVE  Format: SAVED Saves the current message to a file in the default directory. An C informational message indicates if the operation was successful.F If the current message mode is read-only, the file is not saved and! an error message is displayed.wwx^iֻ1 SHOW Format: SHOW optionC Dis3plays information about the MIME environment, depending upon @ what option is specified. Possible options are CONTENT_TYPE,  FILE_TYPES, and VERSION.2 CONTENT_TYPE? Displays a table of message Content-Types/subtypes that MIME: recognizes for viewing with the READ command, and their? associated application viewer to invoke. Other MIME content 7 types and subtypes can be configured in the optional MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file. 3 ExamplesMIME> SHOW CONTENT_TYPEKnown 4Content-types:Content-Type: text/htmlContent-Type: text/plain Edit Command: EDIT/TPUContent-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Type: image/*' View Command: $SYS$SYSTEM:XV.EXE %s CThis example shows there are four "Known Content-types" or types of>MIME messages the MIME utility can read. Three are of the type@"text" and one is of the type "image". Their respective subtypes@are "HTML," "PLAIN" and "RFC822". The fourth type is "image" andCthe wildcard (*) indicates that any subt5ype of image, (for example,B.JPEG or .GIF), can be displayed on this system using the X-Viewer"application ($SYS$SYSTEM:XV.EXE). DThe editor is set to EDIT/EDT for the text/plain MIME messages. ThisCis the default MIME editor unless specified within MAIL, defined byDMAIL$EDIT logical, or set in the MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file. Refer to theANEW or EDIT command /EDIT qualifier for further information aboutsetting the editor.;See MIME$MAILCAP.DAT and the examples for more information.63 MIME$MAILCAP.DAT=The Content-Type table defines how an attachment is read, and@optionally, how its output is converted when extracted with the@X-FDL=file option. It is constructed from program built-in typesBand is read from the optional MIME$MAILCAP.DAT configuration files(if they exist).  SYS$MANAGER:MIME$MAILCAP.DAT SYS$LOGIN:MIME$MAILCAP.DAT3System-wide Content-Types are specified by the file9SYS$MANAGER:MIME$MAILCAP.DAT and can be supplemented with@additional entries f 7ound in the SYS$LOGIN:MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file.AThese files are not created by default for customization on a perAsystem/site basis. The MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file follows the general *format of (Request for Comments) RFC 1524. TYPE/SUBTYPE VIEW_COMMANDAThe Content-Type table is constructed beginning with the built-inCtypes, then adding the system definitions from the system manager's;MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file, and ending with data from the user's.default login directory MIME$MAILCAP.DAT file. 8?The entries are displayed in order of the most recently definedB(LIFO) entries. In the case of duplicate entries, the first entry Dis used. This allows a user to customize their own environment while?the system manager defines a default system or site environmentfor all users.DNote that by default, only the minimal ASCII types and subtypes are Edefined. This allows customizing MIME to the system, and for security.reasons, allows a regulated site environment. ?Consider the effect of9 a malicious user mailing a harmful imageB(.EXE) file that is executed upon being read with the OpenVMS MIMECutility. RFC 2046 lists certain security considerations that shouldDbe noted, such as PostScript files that include PostScript operators?such as "deletefile" and others that can be used in a maliciousmanner.@For more information, see Example_MIME$MAILCAP.DAT help section.3 Example_MIME$MAILCAP.DAT #?# SYS$MANAGER:MIME$MAILCAP.DAT - system wide definitions#B# : SYS$LOGIN:MIME$MAILCAP.DAT - user specific definitions *# # FORMAT: # '# TYPE/SUBTYPE; VIEW_COMMAND; options##7# Netscape handles .HTML, .HTM (and others if you want)# ---------------------------- # - for URL -:# text/html; netscape -remote "openURL(%s,new-window)"# - for file -.# text/html; netscape -remote openfile(%s)#4text/html; netscape -remote "openURL(%s,new-window)"#$# A continuation line characte;r '\' # text/htm; \ netscape -remote \ "openURL(%s,new-window)"#0# X-View handles images ('*' = wildcard subtype)# ---------------------# image/bmp; xv %simage/*; xv %s## CDA Viewer handles DDIF, PS,# ----------------------------8# application/ddif; view/select=x_display/FORMAT=ddif %s#2# !
