RFC 1873: Message/External-Body Content-ID Access Type

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The existing MIME Content-Type Message/External-Body access-types allow a MIME entity (body-part) to refer to an object that is not in the message by specifying how to access that object. The Content-ID access method described in this document provides the capability to refer to an object within the message. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
