Excerpts from netnews.comp.mail.multi-media: 12-Apr-92 Pine and MIME Mark Crispin@Tomobiki-Ch (1232*) > I should note too that Andrew is *not* a competitor to > MIME; the primary author of MIME was one of the primary developers of Andrew > mail. Hey, that must be me... Seriously, the best way to think about Andrew is as a precursor/model for MIME. MIME shows some Andrew influences, but the data format is actually much nicer in many ways. The new version of Andrew, to be released this month, actually supports MIME in addition to its old data format, which is thus being phased out (for email use) in favor of MIME. So Mark's right, there's no competition between Andrew and MIME.
