   This specification provides for "simple mode" carriage of facsimile

   data over the Internet.  Extensions to this document will follow.

   The current specification employs standard protocols and file formats

   such as TCP/IP, Internet mail protocols [1, 2, 3], MIME [4, 16, 17],

   and TIFF for Facsimile [5,6,19].  It can send images not only to

   other Internet-aware facsimile devices but also to Internet-native

   systems, such as PCs with common email readers which can handle MIME

   mail and TIFF for Facsimile data.  The specification facilitates

   communication among existing facsimile devices, Internet mail agents,

   and the gateways which connect them.

   The key words "MUST", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", and "MAY" in this

   document are to be interpreted as described in [7].
