Technical Summary

  The URLFETCH command defined as part of URLAUTH provides a mechanism
  for third-parties to gain access to data held within messages in a
  user's private store, however, this data is sent verbatim, which is
  not suitable for a number of applications. This memo specifies a
  method for obtaining data in forms suitable for non-mail applications.

RFC Editor

  Replace the last 3 production of the ABNF with:
   url-meta-bodystruct   =  "BODYPARTSTRUCTURE" SP body

   url-meta-binary       =  "BINARY" SP ( nstring / literal8 )
      ; If content contains a NUL octet, literal8 MUST be used.
      ; Otherwise, content SHOULD use nstring.
      ; On decoding error NIL should be used.

   url-meta-body         =  "BODY" SP nstring
