Is there a special mime type for sending mail content geared towards mobile phones

Question

I've been writing mail software for years and now I'm being asked to deliver mail to mobile phones. You can send a multipart/alternative type email so you can send both html and text versions of the email. Has there been a standard introduced that supports a 3rd type geared towards mobile devices? I've been searching but I'm not finding anything.

I figure most new phones (read: at least android and ios) are advanced enough that they can display html mail fairly well, that they wouldn't need this, but I was wondering if there was an actual standard that maybe nobody's adopted yet.

Answer 1

You must not do anything special, just mobile phone must have installed a mail client and set correctly in order to receive mails.

I don't think that is a special mime just for mobile phone, just you will have to care what features mobile mail client support ( can display images?, can display a specific tag?, can handle javascript?, etc)

Answer 2

There is no special mimetype for mobile phones. Mobile phones just use the existing standard, and it is up to the phone itself how it displays it.
