It is often useful for a single user to have multiple email addresses
which can be used to assist categorizing incoming email. One way of
doing this is to divide the local-part of an email address into user
and detail parts. The user part is used to route the message within
the specified domain and the detail part is used to route the message
according to a particular user's wishes.
This specification formalizes the de-facto standard for subaddressing
in use today and includes advice and requirements for final delivery
agents, MUAs and mail list servers which wish to support
subaddressing.

Send a message to:

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-newman-email-subaddr-01.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
