-.sh 1 "Format of messages"
-.pp
-This section describes the format of messages.
-Messages begin with a
-.i from
-line, which consists of the word
-.q From
-followed by a user name, followed by anything, followed by
-a date in the format returned by the
-.i ctime
-library routine described in section 3 of the Unix Programmer's
-Manual. 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.
