    A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries.

            RFC 4142

            Title: Full-mode Fax Profile for Internet Mail (FFPIM)
            Author(s): D. Crocker, G. Klyne
            Status: Standards Track

    Classic facsimile document exchange represents both a set of
    technical specifications and a class of service. Previous work has
    replicated some of that service class as a profile within Internet
    mail. The current specification defines "full mode" carriage of
    facsimile data over the Internet, building upon that previous work
    and adding the remaining functionality necessary for achieving
    reliability and capability negotiation for Internet mail, on a par
    with classic T.30 facsimile. These additional features are designed
    to provide the highest level of interoperability with the
    standards-compliant email infrastructure and mail user agents, while
    providing a level of service that approximates what is currently
    enjoyed by fax users.

    This document is a product of the Internet Fax Working Group of the IETF.

    This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

    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.

    This announcement is sent to the IETF list and the RFC-DIST list.
    Requests to be added to or deleted from the IETF distribution list
    should be sent to IETF-REQUEST@IETF.ORG. Requests to be
    added to or deleted from the RFC-DIST distribution list should
    be sent to RFC-DIST-REQUEST@RFC-EDITOR.ORG.

    Details on obtaining RFCs via FTP or EMAIL may be obtained by sending
    an EMAIL message to rfc-info@RFC-EDITOR.ORG with the message body
    help: ways_to_get_rfcs. For example:

            To: rfc-info@RFC-EDITOR.ORG
            Subject: getting rfcs

            help: ways_to_get_rfcs

    Requests for special distribution should be addressed to either the
    author of the RFC in question, or to RFC-Manager@RFC-EDITOR.ORG. Unless
    specifically noted otherwise on the RFC itself, all RFCs are for
    unlimited distribution.

    Submissions for Requests for Comments should be sent to
    RFC-EDITOR@RFC-EDITOR.ORG. Please consult RFC 2223, Instructions to RFC
    Authors, for further information.
