Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions

Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) is a standard that allows emails and other internet applications to send and receive different types of data beyond plain text. It enables the inclusion of multimedia content such as images, audio, videos, and attachments, by specifying how to encode and decode these various formats. Essentially, MIME acts as a language that helps computers understand what kind of data is being sent and how to handle it correctly, making digital communication more versatile and rich.
