RFC 2111: Content-ID and Message-ID Uniform Resource Locators

This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 2392.

Current version: RFC 2392 — Content-ID and Message-ID Uniform Resource Locators

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

The Uniform Resource Locator (URL) schemes, "cid:" and "mid:" allow references to messages and the body parts of messages. For example, within a single multipart message, one HTML body part might include embedded references to other parts of the same message. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
