6.21.6.2. Message/news withdrawn

[Previous Up Next]
6.21.6.2.  Message/news withdrawn
   The Content-Type "message/news", as previously registered with IANA,
   is hereby obsoleted and should be withdrawn. It was never widely
   implemented, and its default treatment as "application/octet-stream"
   by agents that did not recognise it was counter productive. The
   Content-Type "message/rfc822" SHOULD be used in its place, as already
   described above.
