3.  vCard Profile Features   The vCard MIME Directory Profile Type contains directory information,   typically pertaining to a single directory entry. The information is   described using an attribute schema that is tailored for capturing   personal contact information. The vCard can include attributes that   describe identification, delivery addressing, telecommunications   addressing, geographical, organizational, general explanatory and   security and access information about the particular object   associated with the vCard.3.1 Identification Types   These types are used in the vCard profile to capture information   associated with the identification and naming of the person or   resource associated with the vCard.3.1.1 FN Type Definition   To: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type FN   Type name:FN   Type purpose: To specify the formatted text corresponding to the name   of the object the vCard represents.Dawson & Howes              Standards Track                     [Page 8]RFC 2426              vCard MIME Directory Profile        September 1998   Type encoding: 8bit   Type value: A single text value.   Type special notes: This type is based on the semantics of the X.520   Common Name attribute. The property MUST be present in the vCard   object.   Type example:        FN:Mr. John Q. Public\, Esq.3.1.2 N Type Definition   To: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type N   Type name: N   Type purpose: To specify the components of the name of the object the   vCard represents.   Type encoding: 8bit   Type value: A single structured text value. Each component can have   multiple values.   Type special note: The structured type value corresponds, in   sequence, to the Family Name, Given Name, Additional Names, Honorific   Prefixes, and Honorific Suffixes. The text components are separated   by the SEMI-COLON character (ASCII decimal 59). Individual text   components can include multiple text values (e.g., multiple   Additional Names) separated by the COMMA character (ASCII decimal   44). This type is based on the semantics of the X.520 individual name   attributes. The property MUST be present in the vCard object.   Type example:        N:Public;John;Quinlan;Mr.;Esq.        N:Stevenson;John;Philip,Paul;Dr.;Jr.,M.D.,A.C.P.3.1.3 NICKNAME Type Definition   To: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type NICKNAMEDawson & Howes              Standards Track                     [Page 9]RFC 2426              vCard MIME Directory Profile        September 1998   Type name: NICKNAME   Type purpose: To specify the text corresponding to the nickname of   the object the vCard represents.   Type encoding: 8bit   Type value: One or more text values separated by a COMMA character   (ASCII decimal 44).   Type special note: The nickname is the descriptive name given instead   of or in addition to the one belonging to a person, place, or thing.   It can also be used to specify a familiar form of a proper name   specified by the FN or N types.   Type example:        NICKNAME:Robbie        NICKNAME:Jim,Jimmie3.1.4 PHOTO Type Definition   To: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type PHOTO   Type name: PHOTO   Type purpose: To specify an image or photograph information that   annotates some aspect of the object the vCard represents.   Type encoding: The encoding MUST be reset to "b" using the ENCODING   parameter in order to specify inline, encoded binary data. If the   value is referenced by a URI value, then the default encoding of 8bit   is used and no explicit ENCODING parameter is needed.   Type value: A single value. The default is binary value. It can also   be reset to uri value. The uri value can be used to specify a value   outside of this MIME entity.   Type special notes: The type can include the type parameter "TYPE" to   specify the graphic image format type. The TYPE parameter values MUST   be one of the IANA registered image formats or a non-standard image   format.Dawson & Howes              Standards Track                    [Page 10]RFC 2426              vCard MIME Directory Profile        September 1998   Type example:        PHOTO;VALUE=uri:http://www.abc.com/pub/photos         /jqpublic.gif        PHOTO;ENCODING=b;TYPE=JPEG:MIICajCCAdOgAwIBAgICBEUwDQYJKoZIhvcN         AQEEBQAwdzELMAkGA1UEBhMCVVMxLDAqBgNVBAoTI05ldHNjYXBlIENvbW11bm         ljYXRpb25zIENvcnBvcmF0aW9uMRwwGgYDVQQLExNJbmZvcm1hdGlvbiBTeXN0         <...remainder of "B" encoded binary data...>3.1.5 BDAY Type Definition   To: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type BDAY   Type name: BDAY   Type purpose: To specify the birth date of the object the vCard   represents.   Type encoding: 8bit   Type value: The default is a single date value. It can also be reset   to a single date-time value.   Type examples:        BDAY:1996-04-15        BDAY:1953-10-15T23:10:00Z        BDAY:1987-09-27T08:30:00-06:003.2 Delivery Addressing Types   These types are concerned with information related to the delivery   addressing or label for the vCard object.3.2.1 ADR Type Definition   To: ietf-mime-directory@imc.org   Subject: Registration of text/directory MIME type ADR   Type name: ADRDawson & Howes              Standards Track                    [Page 11]RFC 2426              vCard MIME Directory Profile        September 1998   Type purpose: To specify the components of the delivery address for   the vCard object.   Type encoding: 8bit   Type value: A single structured text value, separated by the   SEMI-COLON character (ASCII decimal 59).   Type special notes: The structured type value consists of a sequence   of address components. The component values MUST be specified in   their corresponding position. The structured type value corresponds,   in sequence, to the post office box; the extended address; the street   address; the locality (e.g., city); the region (e.g., state or   province); the postal code; the country name. When a component value   is missing, the associated component separator MUST still be   specified.   The text components are separated by the SEMI-COLON character (ASCII   decimal 59). Where it makes semantic sense, individual text   components can include multiple text values (e.g., a "street"   component with multiple lines) separated by the COMMA character   (ASCII decimal 44).   The type can include the type parameter "TYPE" to specify the   delivery address type. The TYPE parameter values can include "dom" to   indicate a domestic delivery address; "intl" to indicate an   international delivery address; "postal" to indicate a postal   delivery address; "parcel" to indicate a parcel delivery address;   "home" to indicate a delivery address for a residence; "work" to   indicate delivery address for a place of work; and "pref" to indicate   the preferred delivery address when more than one address is   specified. These type parameter values can be specified as a   parameter list (i.e., "TYPE=dom;TYPE=postal") or as a value list   (i.e., "TYPE=dom,postal"). This type is based on semantics of the   X.520 geographical and postal addressing attributes. The default is   "TYPE=intl,postal,parcel,work". The default can be overridden to some   other set of values by specifying one or more alternate values. For   example, the default can be reset to "TYPE=dom,postal,work,home" to   specify a domestic delivery address for postal delivery to a   residence that is also used for work.   Type example: In this example the post office box and the extended   address are absent.
