Overview

The Vortex MIME API, added in Texis version 7.02, provides a set of functions for parsing MIME (Multimedia Internet Mail Extensions) files, i.e. Internet mail messages. The API is implemented as a set of SQL functions which return and manipulate in-memory objects, for maximum code flexibility - the API is used almost exclusively in Vortex, not SQL. There are also some standalone functions for parsing headers, aliases and other strings, outside of a message.
