I don't know about this, I think that SMTP clearly fits into the Mail
catagory. So does Mail/Sendmail
Why not just keep it all in Mail?

Probably, I don't know what the author has in mind.
Perhaps we should have a message subclass:
Message/HTML
Message/MIME
Message/*
as well as a MIME sub-folder for non-message related topics.
This could get a bit complicated, but I think MIME/application/msword and
MIME/Message shouldn't be in the same sub-class (you had to put msword in
there:-).
