Proposed Solution: Use of MIME multipart entities Proposed Solution: Use of MIME multipart entities Mandatory inclusion of Content-ID in each multipart entity Mandatory inclusion of Content-ID in each multipart entity Definition of a new MIME header: Content-Reference Definition of a new MIME header: Content-Reference Allows answerer to indicate which MIME body in the offer is Allows answerer to indicate which MIME body in the offer is being responded to being responded to Answerer must include one MIME body with Content- Answerer must include one MIME body with Content- Reference header when offerer uses MIME Reference header when offerer uses MIME multipart/alternative body multipart/alternative body
