>This document describes an extension to the SMTP service that allows
>an SMTP server and client to use transport-layer security to provide
>private, authenticated communication over the Internet. This gives
>SMTP agents the ability to protect some or all of their
>communications from eavesdroppers and attackers.
>
>This document is a revision of RFC 2487, which is currently a Proposed
>Standard. The changes that this draft propose are:
>
>  - Additional discussion of when a server should and should not
>      advertise the STARTTLS extension (section 4)
>  - More discussion of the man-in-the-middle attacks (sections
>    5 and 7)
>  - Bugfix in the example in section 6 to indicate that the client
>    needs to issue a new EHLO command, as already is described in
>    section 5.2.

>         exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
>         "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split

>         how to manipulate these messages.
