this document defines a new MIME content-type, "matter-transport",
and for an initial subtype, "sentient-life-form". This subtype was
designed to meet the following criteria:

all yet-undiscovered aspects of life forms which will be required
for the transport of non-human species (e.g. dolphins, Klingons,
or politicians).

matter-transport mail is inadvertently delivered to a human recipient

... investigation under the auspices of the IETF. The addition of matter
transport should not significantly complicate that effort, as it is
already necessary to specify gateway behavior for MIME types ...
... MIME types that
have no X.400 equivalents, and matter transport is simply another
such untranslatable type.
...
... For this reason, it is recommended that the subject of matter
transport be explicitly marked "for further study" in the next
generation of the X.400 specification, X.400 ...
... X.400-1996. This will give
the community ample time to define a more complete specification for
matter transport as part of X.400-2000, and possibly even a readily-
implementable specification as part of X.400 ...
