RFC822-Headers content-type:
The Text/RFC822-Headers content-type is defined as follows:
MIME type name: Text
MIME subtype name: RFC822-Headers
Required parameters: None
Optional parameters: none
Encoding considerations:
7 bit is sufficient for normal RFC822 headers, however, if the headers
are broken and require encoding, they may be encoded in
quoted-printable.
Security considerations:
Automated use of report types without authentication presents several
security issues. Forging negative reports presents the opportunity
for denial-of-service attacks when the reports are used for automated
maintenance of directories or mailing lists. Forging positive reports
may cause the sender to incorrectly believe a message was delivered
when it was not.
