Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) is a standard that extends the format of email messages to support text in character sets other than ASCII, as well as attachments of audio, video, images, and application programs. Message bodies may consist of multiple parts, and header information may be specified in non-ASCII character sets.
Originally, ARPANET, UUCP, and Internet SMTP email allowed 7-bit ASCII text only. Text files were emailed by including them in the message body.

In information and communications technology, a media type, [1] [2] content type [2] [3] or MIME type [1] [4] [5] is a two-part identifier for file formats and content formats.Their purpose is comparable to filename extensions and uniform type identifiers, in that they identify the intended data format.
