I'm intrigued. Does the email standard actually include a 'summary' field? If so, why doesn't that still exist?
- zerohp 8y agoThis is a usenet post, not an email. RFC 1036 includes 'Summary' as an optional field.

- macintux 8y agoAs zerohp said, Usenet. Here's an RFC link I just chased down: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5536#section-3.2.11 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5536#section-3.2.11
- kilo_bravo_3 8y agoNot email, USENET. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1036 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1036 2.2.10. Summary This line should contain a brief summary of the message. It is usually used as part of a follow-up to another message. Again, it is very useful to the reader in determining whether to read the message.
