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].
Alvestrand Standards Track [Page 1]
RFC 2158 X.400 Image Body Parts January 1998
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
Alvestrand Standards Track [Page 2]
RFC 2158 X.400 Image Body Parts January 1998
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) }
4. Security Considerations
Security issues are not considered in this memo.
