The identical text is also published as ISO/IEC International Standard 10021-2. Following ITU-T decision to publish new editions of the

10、 set of Message Handling Recommendations, this edition of ITU-T Rec. X.402 consolidates X.402 (11/1995), X.402 Technical Corrigendum 1 (08/1997) and X.402 Amendment 1 (12/1997). ii ITU-T Rec. X.402 (06/1999) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized a

11、gency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwi

12、de basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WT

13、SC Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication adminis

14、tration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicabi

15、lity of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had/had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to imple

16、ment this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database.

45、i ITU-T Rec. X.402 (06/1999) Introduction This Specification is one of a set of Recommendations | International Standards for Message Handling. The entire set provides a comprehensive blueprint for a Message Handling System (MHS) realized by any number of cooperating open systems. The purpose of an

46、MHS is to enable users to exchange messages on a store-and-forward basis. A message submitted on behalf of one user, the originator, is conveyed by the Message Transfer System (MTS) and subsequently delivered to the agents of one or more additional users, the recipients. Access units (AUs) link the

47、MTS to communication systems of other kinds (e.g., postal systems). A user is assisted in the preparation, storage, and display of messages by a user agent (UA). Optionally, he is assisted in the storage of messages by a message store (MS). The MTS comprises a number of message transfer agents (MTAs

48、) which collectively perform the store-and-forward message transfer function. This Specification specifies the overall architecture of the MHS and serves as a technical introduction to it. This Specification was developed jointly by ITU-T and ISO/IEC. It is published as common text as ITU-T Rec. X.4
