A possible +.i ctime +format date is: +.(l +Tue Dec 1 10:58:23 1981 +.)l +The +.i ctime +date may be optionally followed by a single space and a +time zone indication, which +should be three capital letters, such as PDT. +.pp +Following the +.i from +line are zero or more +.i "header field" +lines. +Each header field line is of the form: +.(l +name: information +.)l +.i Name +can be anything, but only certain header fields are recognized as +having any meaning. The recognized header fields are: +.i article-id , +.i bcc , +.i cc , +.i from , +.i reply-to , +.i sender , +.i subject , +and +.i to . +Other header fields are also significant to other systems; see, +for example, the current Arpanet message standard for much more +information on this topic. +A header field can be continued onto following lines by making the +first character on the following line a space or tab character. +.pp +If any headers are present, they must be followed by a blank line. +The part that follows is called the +.i body +of the message, and must be ASCII text, not containing null characters. +Each line in the message body must be no longer than 512 characters and +terminated with an ASCII newline character. +If binary data must be passed through the mail system, it is suggested +that this data be encoded in a system which encodes six bits into +a printable character (i.e.: uuencode). +For example, one could use the upper and lower case letters, the digits, +and the characters comma and period to make up the 64 characters. +Then, one can send a 16-bit binary number +as three characters. These characters should be packed into lines, +preferably lines about 70 characters long as long lines are transmitted +more efficiently. +.pp +The message delivery system always adds a blank line to the end of +each message. This blank line must not be deleted. +.pp +The UUCP message delivery system sometimes adds a blank line to +the end of a message each time it is forwarded through a machine. +.pp +It should be noted that some network transport protocols enforce +limits to the lengths of messages. -- cgit v1.2.3-56-ge451
