Requests for Comments (RFCs) are documents issued by the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IETF) at the Network Information Center
(NIC). Each such document defines an aspect of protocol surrounding
the Internet. RFCs are available via the Web and anonymous FTP from
http://www.ietf.org. A nearly complete list
of all email-related RFCs is available from http://www.imc.org/rfcs.html.
