ROUTED BY BITNET/CO=US/ROUTE=INTERNET/
FORMAT OF MESSAGE /LANG=USENGLISH/FORM=PLAINTEXT/
Here, the last two header lines are non-Internet headers that might confuse some programs.
But the Message: header that precedes them tells sendmail to treat them as message body,
and problems are avoided.
Note that Message: is not defined by any RFC but is a convention that is shared by all
versions of sendmail and a few other MTAs. It is included in sendmail for backward
compatibility with a few old messaging systems, so it should be considered deprecated. The
Message: header should never be declared in the configuration file, and should probably
never be used.
25.12.26 MIME-Version:
This message conforms to MIME standards RFC2045
MIME is documented in RFC2045, RFC2046, RFC2047, RFC2048, and RFC2049. The
sendmail program cares about MIME only when bouncing messages and when determining
how to convert the message body between 8 and 7 bits. If the SendMimeErrors
option (?§24.9.105 on page 1086) is set, V8 sendmail includes the following header in all
returned (bounced) mail:
MIME-Version: 1.0
