PMDF System Manager's Guide

As of OpenVMS 7.2, VMS MAIL is capable of generating MIME headers. PMDF does not normally expect to see MIME headers coming from VMS MAIL, and will normally ignore such headers if they are present. The special logical PMDF_MAIL_MIME_HEADERS can be used to instruct PMDF to read MIME headers from the top of the message body coming from VMS MAIL. If PMDF_MAIL_MIME_HEADERS translates to TRUE, then PMDF will properly interpret MIME headers on messages originating from VMS MAIL.

PMDF_MAIL_MIME_HEADERS can be defined either system-wide, or by individual users.
