                          The RFC-INFO service
                          --------------------

RFC-Info is an e-mail based service to help in locating and retrieving
RFCs, FYIs, STDs, and IMRs.  Users can ask for "lists" of all RFCs,
FYIs, STDs, and IMRs having certain attributes such as their ID number,
keywords, title, author, issuing organization, and date.

To use the service send e-mail to RFC-INFO@ISI.EDU with your requests
in the body of the message.  Feel free to put anything in the SUBJECT,
the system ignores it.  The body of the message is processed with case
independence.

To get started you may send a message to RFC-INFO@ISI.EDU with requests
such as in the following examples (without the explanation between []):
