Abstract
The claimed subject matter provides systems and/or methods that facilitate interpreting Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) data to view and/or edit MIME content. An interface can obtain MIME data. For instance, this MIME data can be obtained from a stream of MIME data, from loading a static file including the MIME data, etc. Moreover, any disparate type of RFC 822 data can additionally or alternatively be received by the interface. In an embodiment, a MIME reader analyzes the MIME data (and/or normalized RFC 822 data) to interpret encoded structural information and generates at least one primitive based on the encoded structural information. A MIME writer which complements the MIME reader then generates MIME data from the at least one primitive. Further, a hierarchical model can be built utilizing the at least one primitive.
