multipurpose internet mail extensions (MIME)
A protocol used to send email messages containing forms of computer data other than text. Some email systems are only designed for textual messages and sending other computer data results in it being corrupted. MIME is a way of coding the data to avoid corruption. On receipt the data will need to be decoded before use.
