I wondered if anyone on the list could help me with a client problem that
was posed to me today.  I hate to admit it, but I just don't quite
understand what it is she's trying to do...

Can someone out there help me out, please?

Much appreciated...

Subject: Creating MIME messages with Pine (fwd)
Hello,

I would like to send a multipart fax that includes a postscript file
using the tpc.int internet faxing system.

This requires that I can send an MIME email message of the following
format:

To: remote-printer.Arlington_Hewes/[email-masked]
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; [MIME boundary numbers]

---[MIME numbers]
Content-type: application/remote-printing
[cover sheet details]

---[MIME numbers]
Content-type: application/postscript

%!
..

The following is a quote from the tpc.int fax FAQ:
>To use this mechanism, the top-level content in your message must be
>multipart/mixed, and the very first content in that must be
>application/remote-printing.

Using PINE I can attatch postscript files ok but, I can't get it to
create the first content as:
  Content-type: application/remote-printing
because pine forces the first content to be:
  Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

The email program I am most familiar with is PINE.
Can I use this to create such a multipart MIME email messages?
If not how can I create and mail such a message?
