SUMMARY
=======

Message Encapsulation is the process Microsoft Mail uses to send mail
transparently from one Microsoft Mail postoffice through a gateway (for example,
SMTP) to another Microsoft Mail postoffice. This means that when the user
receives the mail message, it is indistinguishable from other Microsoft Mail
messages--all heading fields (TO, CC, SUBJECT, PRIORITY, and ATTACHMENTS) are
preserved.
