+
+ X.400 Image Body Parts
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+ This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
+ Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
+ improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
+ Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
+ and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

+
+1. Introduction
+
+ This document contains the body parts defined in RFC 1495 for
+ carrying image formats that were originally defined in MIME through
+ an X.400 system.
+
+ It also documents the OIDs assigned to these data formats as FTAM
+ body parts, which allow the MIME types to be converted to FTAM body
+ parts; this will probably be more useful than the new body parts
+ defined here.
+
+2. Newly defined X.400 body parts
+
+2.1. The JPEG body part
+
+ The following Extended Body Part is defined for JPEG data streams.
+ It has no parameters.
+
+ jpeg-body-part EXTENDED-BODY-PART-TYPE
+ DATA OCTET STRING
+ ::= mime-jpeg-body
+
+ mime-jpeg-body OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=
+ { mixer-bp-data 3 }
+
+ The content is as defined in [MIME].

+
+
+2.2. The GIF body part
+
+ The following Extended Body Part is defined for GIF data streams. It
+ has no parameters.
+
+ gif-body-part EXTENDED-BODY-PART-TYPE
+ DATA OCTET STRING
+ ::= mime-gif-body
+
+ mime-gif-body OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=
+ { mixer-bp-data 4 }
+
+ The content is as defined in [MIME].
+
+3. Defined equivalences with MIME types
+
+3.1. image/jpeg - jpeg-body-part
+
+ X.400 Body Part: Extended Body Part, OID jpeg-body-part
+ MIME Content-Type: image/jpeg
+ Conversion: None
+
+3.2. image/jpeg - FTAM EMA JPEG
+
+ X.400 Body Part: FTAM EMA JPEG
+ MIME Content-Type: image/jpeg
+ Conversion: None
+
+ The OID assigned to JPEG by EMA in [MAWG] is
+
+ { ema objects(2) messaging (2) attachments(1) jpeg-image(6) }
+
+ while EMA's OID is
+
+ { joint-iso-ccitt(2) country(16) us(840) organization(1)
+ ema(113694) }
+
+ making the total OID, numeric only
+
+ { 2 16 840 1 113694 2 2 1 6 }
+
+3.3. image/gif - gif-body-part
+
+ X.400 Body Part: Extended Body Part, OID gif-body-part
+ MIME Content-Type: image/gif
+ Conversion: None
+
+

+
+
+3.4. image/gif - FTAM EMA GIF
+
+ X.400 Body Part: FTAM EMA GIF
+ MIME Content-Type: image/jpeg
+ Conversion: None
+
+ The OID assigned to JPEG by EMA in [MAWG] is
+
+ { ema objects(2) messaging (2) attachments(1) gif-image(4) }
