1 Basics: protocols were developed even before there was an Internet, at a time when no one was anticipating widespread use of digital graphics or even rich text format (fonts, colors, etc.), not to mention languages that use other than the Roman alphabet. So only handled ASCII messages. The main protocols for are: SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol outgoing mail and relaying POP3 Post Office Protocol 3 incoming mail box IMAP Internet Mail Access Protocol incoming mail box MIME Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions Every is sent out by an SMTP server. Incoming mail boxes exist on either a POP3 or an IMAP server. These 2 protocols are very similar, the differences being mostly in the defaults for downloading or keeping copies of received s when the account owner logs in to check his/her . IMAP is the more modern server and is most likely to be used. MIME is the protocol that was devised to allow non-ascii encoded content in an and attached files to an . GENERAL OPERATION OF There are two ways in which can be originated and received. The difference between these two is very important to understand: 1. Traditional requires you to use client software on your computer (Outlook, Outlook Express, Apple Mail, Thunderbird), which is configured to communicate with a specific SMTP server which you are authorized to use to send out mail, and a specific IMAP (or POP3) server where you have an account and INBOX. These servers are normally provided for your use by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). 2. Webmail such as Gmail, AOL, Yahoo mail, Hotmail, etc. only require you to use a browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc. or on a mobile device) because the equivalent of an client is part of the website where you have an account. Once a message has been sent from an SMTP server, it is routed to its destination typically through several mail transfer agents (or relay servers), regardless of whether it was created with Traditional or Webmail software. Depending on whether an recipient uses Webmail or Traditional software, the destination INBOX receives the message and stores it until the recipient logs into their account to read their new (or saved) .
2 As a functional overview, you may think of transmission as follows: Some means for originator to compose an message Some means to route messages to their destinations Some means to store messages for a recipient (INBOX) until they call for them Some means for recipient to recover messages and store them, once read Traditional client (MUA) on originator s computer Webmail Website, originator only needs a web browser Mail Transfer Agents (MTA) or mail relay servers IMAP or POP3 server at your ISP, from where you can download them to your computer client (MUA) on recipient s computer IMAP server at website where you have an account (you can also download them to your computer) Website, recipient only needs a web browser * is based around the use of electronic mailboxes. When an is sent, the message is routed from server to server, all the way to the recipient's server. More precisely, the message is sent to the mail server tasked with transporting s (called the MTA, for Mail Transport Agent) to the recipient's MTA. On the Internet, MTAs communicate with one another using the protocol SMTP, and so are logically called SMTP servers (or sometimes outgoing mail servers). The recipient's MTA then delivers the to the incoming mail server (called the MDA, for Mail Delivery Agent), which stores the as it waits for the user to accept it.
3 To use a real-world analogy, MTAs act as the post office (the sorting area and mail carrier, which handle message transportation), while MDAs act as mailboxes, which store messages (as much as their volume will allow) until the recipients check the box. This means that it is not necessary for recipients to be connected in order for them to be sent . To keep everyone from checking other users' s, MDA is protected by a user name called a login and by a password. Retrieving mail is done using a software program called an MUA (Mail User Agent). When the MUA is a program installed on the user's system, it is called an client (such as Mozilla Thunderbird, Microsoft Outlook, Eudora Mail, etc.). When it is a web interface used for interacting with the incoming mail server, it is called webmail. * From: Anatomy of an We are all familiar with what an looks like when we view one on our computer or mobile device screen, but that s only what it looks like after it has been processed for display on that device or with that software. There are many header records that are not displayed, by default, but you can view them by selecting View Source or similar wording, from your mail client screen. These are headers that provide instructions to your mail client, or which document the processing that has occurred on each SMTP server that has handled the message; a precise time-line and identification of each server, special information such as spam filtering that may have occurred, etc. Ordinarily, you won t be interested in seeing such headers, so they are not normally displayed; but if you want to trace a particular message, perhaps to see if it actually came from who the visible header SAYS it comes from, you can do so. Then there is all the encoded data that is made possible by the MIME protocol, including HTML content, rich text format, inline images, or even encrypted text, if you have received encrypted . All of these forms of content would have to be encoded at the originator s SMTP server into ASCII characters, for transmission as , and finally decoded by your client of MUA (Mail User Agent) in order for you to be able to read it. Finally, there may be attached files to an message. These are commonly shown at the bottom of the main body of an message, they often require software to display them, such as Adobe Reader if the attachment is a.pdf file, or Windows Media Player if the attachment is a video clip, or Microsoft Excel if the
4 attachment is a spreadsheet, etc., and may also be copied as files to your computer or mobile device. MIME protocol defines multipart messages, meaning that a single message may consist of several parts, for example, a plain ASCII text body, which might also include an inline encoded image, as well as an attached MS Word document; and all of these would be separated by unique boundary markers. I sent myself a couple of test s so I could demonstrate the various components of a MIME . This is what actually gets transferred from the originator s MUA through all the MTA s to the recipient s MUA. First, a very simple with no MIME content, addressed to just one person. Looking at it as it is displayed in my Thunderbird client: Notice that I clicked on the Other Action dropdown list, where View Source can be found in Thunderbird. In other clients, the selection may be called View Fulll Headers and be found in a different location.

6 I highlighted in green the lines that are shown in the normal display of the . You can see that there is a great deal more information in the headers than is displayed by default. I highlighted in red some of the more useful header lines. Each MTA (mail relay) server that handles a message adds a Received: line to the top of the headers, so this message sent to my Gmail address (which I have configured to forward all incoming mail to my ravey.net Inbox) actually went through 8 MTA servers! By comparing the timestamps on the Received: lines, you can trace exactly how long it took to get from my GoDaddy SMTP server (secureserver.net) through several MTA s and was delivered to Google s IMAP server (gmail.com), then forwarded back to GoDaddy s SMTP servers to its IMAP server, from where I recovered it with my Thunderbird client on my computer, less than a minute later! But that was a simple plain text . Then I sent another that included some HTML content, a small.ico inline embedded image (the clock), and had a small.xls Excel spreadsheet file attached to the . This is what that looked like in my Thunderbird client:
7 Notice the indication of an attached spreadsheet file at the bottom. I could double-click on that to open the file with Microsoft Excel, or I could opt to save the file on my hard drive. But things like HTML, the inline image, and the attached spreadsheet file are NOT plain ASCII text, so those parts must be encoded (converted to ASCII characters) and MIME instructions added to the message. Here is the source code of that message, showing all the headers, as with the first message, and all the MIME instructions and encoded content (well, not ALL of it, that would have taken pages and pages! I have indicated where I have skipped most of the actual encoding.
