Any email client that is MIME enhanced shows the header lines from the mime.txt document and displays the content of either the body.txt or body.html file as the body of the email. The choice of which version of the body is shown depends of the preferences of the recipient. A non-MIME enhanced email client shows the MIME message from mime.txt.

MIME types for attachments are read from the Windows Registry.
