Abstract
A data formatting method for embedding diverse data types in an electronic mail message includes the step of forming a network compliant electronic mail message header. Command blocks representing diverse data types are also generated. The command blocks representing the diverse data types are combined with a network compliant electronic mail message header into an electronic mail message. The electronic mail message is constructed to conform to network standards such that the command blocks representing the diverse data types are processed as textual information.
