I really hate the empty line caused by the trailing EOL
of the XML value. I think this will lead to confusion.
I suggest replacing xml-value-spec with:
xml-value-spec = ">:" FILL SEP
RANGLE XML-STRING RANGLE SEP
; See section 3.4 for details
to avoid this problem. For the example, that would produce
postalAddress;transfer-rxer>:
><?xml version='1.0'?>
><value>
> <item>250 Bay Street</item>
> <item>Brighton Victoria 3186</item>
> <item>Australia</item>
></value>
>

And for a like XML value which didn't have a trailing EOL character,
postalAddress;transfer-rxer>:
><?xml version='1.0'?>
><value>
> <item>250 Bay Street</item>
> <item>Brighton Victoria 3186</item>
> <item>Australia</item>
></value>>

While this is also a bit of an oddity, I think it occur less
often and not result in as many problems as empty line would.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
