Parent topics
- Computer network [r]: A collection of computers or digital devices ("nodes") connected by communication links. [e]
- Internet [r]: International "network of networks" that connects computers together through the Internet Protocol Suite and supports applications like Email and the World Wide Web. [e]
- Email [r]: A method of composing, sending, storing, and receiving messages over electronic communication systems. [e]
Subtopics
- Email processes and protocols [r]: Brief explanation of an email system at the relay level. [e]
- Email agents [r]: Roles and responsibilities of organizations handling email. [e]
- Email security [r]: Brief description of email security problems and solutions. [e]
- Email authentication [r]: Brief overview of methods used to authenticate the sender of an email. [e]
- Email message headers [r]: The header lines in every email message, defined in RFC 5322 [e]
- Email port 587 [r]: TCP port reserved for authenticated submission of email messages. [e]
Core Protocols and Standards
- Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) [r]: In the Internet Protocol Suite, SMTP is the basic method for transferring the "envelopes" of electronic mail among servers performing the electronic "post office" function, not the user mailbox function. [e] (RFC-5321)
- Extended SMTP (ESMTP) [r]: Extensions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol [e]
- SMTP example sessions [r]: Typical email sessions using the SMTP protocol. [e]
- Post Office Protocol (POP) [r]: A client-server messaging protocol for email which requires messages to be downloaded to a client's computer, phone or tablet for reading. [e] (RFC-1939)
- Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) [r]: A client-server messaging protocol for Email which allows messages to be stored indefinitely on the server. [e] (RFC-3501)
- Email message formats [r]: The formats and encodings used for text, pictures, and various other objects in an email. [e] (RFC-5322)
- Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) [r]: MIME extends the format of Internet mail to allow non-US-ASCII textual messages, non-textual messages, multipart message bodies, and non-US-ASCII information in message headers. [e] (RFC-2045..2049)
Security protocols
- Sender Policy Framework (SPF) [r]: Email authentication method that verifies the domain name in the envelope return address against the sender's IP address. [e]
- Sender ID [r]: Email authentication method that verifies the domain name in a "purported" address with the sender's IP address. [e]
- DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) [r]: Email authentication method that uses a digital signature to verify the content of a message. [e]
- Forward-confirmed reverse DNS (FCrDNS) [r]: Email authentication method that verifies a domain name found by a reverse DNS query on the transmitter's IP address. [e]
- Reverse MX (RMX) [r]: Email authentication method that became a basis of SPF and Sender ID. [e]
- Designated Mailers Protocol (DMP) [r]: Email authentication method that became a basis of SPF and Sender ID. [e]
- Certified Server Validation (CSV) [r]: Email authentication method that verifies the hostname of an SMTP transmitter against that transmitter's IP address. [e])
- Kerberos [r]: A protocol using a central server to provide two clients with a shared session key, without either client having to publish a public key. [e]
- Transport Layer Security (TLS) [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Pretty Good Privacy (PGP) [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Email user programs [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Webmail [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Anti-spam techniques [r]: Add brief definition or description
Supporting protocols and standards
