Are there any public-domain IP-compatible mail standards for multi-media mail?
I am working on a messaging system which would combine telephone, videotext,
video, and SMTP e-mail on a single, portable platform, so what I am most
interested in are voice and still/moving video standards which can be moved
around easily via TCP/IP.

In your reply, please indicate the source of the standard, and
give some idea how widespread the current implementations are (software
available, platforms supported, and price ranges).

Please reply by mail, and I'll summarize in a future post.
