Re: [ietf-smtp] [Proposal] 250-MARKDOWN

Hello,

After reading your proposal, I don't quite understand what it is about and what is expected from SMTP implementations.

The content type is part of the message, not part of the protocol, also your rationale seems to equate one SMTP session to one message but a single session may transport multiple messages with different messages with different content types.

Hello Everyone,

I'm the guy who proposed SMTP Over TLS on Port 26. Looks like that was a dead end. So, now coming with another proposal.

I joined IETF day before yesterday. So not sure if this was already discussed before and got rejected. If this was rejected already, then my apologies.

I wanna bring Markdown support to SMTP.  So instead of transferring both "text/plain" and "text/html" versions, future mails can use only "text/markdown".

I listed the benefits in my proposal. Let me if it is worth going forward. So I can create an Internet Draft.


Thanks
