It is an order that does not say anything. it is speechless, so while saving the need for voice recognition software, it has the eery feeling of just an expression-filled white face with a lot of hand motions. Very difficult to interpret.

It is probably an order coming in from the Internet via Mail :

MIME is an Internet Standard that allows email systems to interpret complex data. Web browsers also use the MIME type to accurately display information or launch a separate application to handle the data.

All MIME types (called Internet media type) consist of two parts, in the form type/subtype.

This information is sent to the browser by a web server. Usually, the server determines the MIME type based on the document's file extension. For example, the server would interpret an extension of .txt (plain text file) to have a MIME type of text/plain.
