APPLICATION/REMOTE-PRINTING

[Matthew G. Saroff]

Hi,
I've seen some posts about sending the text of a fax (the cover
sheet) as APPLICATION/REMOTE-PRINTING as opposed to plain/text. What are
the advantages of this, and can con configure pine to do this?

application/remote-printing allows for the production of fairly
richly-formatted coverpages. I'm not sure if pine can be configured to
compose a suitable MIME multipart containing an application/remote-
printing part as the first content . . . It is mainly useful for developers
who wish to create clients which produce more professional coverpages, such
as the FaxHQ client available on our WWW site.
