A .mim or .mme file is a file in the Multipurpose Internet
Mail Extension (MIME) format.
MIME is a specification for the format of non-text e-mail
attachments that allows the attachment to be sent over the
Internet. MIME allows your mail client or Web browser to
send and receive things like spreadsheets and audio, video
and graphics files via Internet mail.
MIME was defined in 1992 by the Internet Engineering Task
Force (IETF). The distinguishing characteristic of a MIME
message is the presence of the MIME headers. As long as your
mail recipients also have e-mail software that is MIME-
compliant (and most e-mail software is), you can swap files
containing attachments automatically.
Here are some tips for e-mail attachments:
You can use a utility like WinZip (PC) or StuffIt (Mac) to
compress a large file before you send. Most e-mail systems
will not accept messages that exceed a certain size.
It is a good idea to send attached photographs in the Joint
Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) format rather than the GIF
or TIFF formats. JPEG (.jpg) files use less space and
therefore upload faster.
AOL and some e-mail software uses .mme or .mim files as a
"wrapper" for mail that contains non-text attachments. Use
care when sending a MIME attachment to users of older
versions of AOL software, as the earlier versions do not
handle MIME very well. Send one attachment per e-mail. If
you are an AOL user, use the keyword (Ctrl+K) MIME to view
help about decoding MIME files.
