<h2><a name="section_1_1">1.1. SCOPE</a></h2>
<p> This standard specifies a syntax for text messages that are
sent among computer users, within the framework of "electronic
mail". The standard supersedes the one specified in ARPANET
Request for Comments #733, "Standard for the Format of ARPA Network
Text Messages".
</p>
<h2><a name="section_1_2">1.2. COMMUNICATION FRAMEWORK</a></h2>
<p> Messages consist of lines of text. No special provisions
are made for encoding drawings, facsimile, speech, or structured
text. No significant consideration has been given to questions
of data compression or to transmission and storage efficiency,
and the standard tends to be free with the number of bits consumed.
For example, field names are specified as free text,
rather than special terse codes.
