CHAPTER 16: SMTP (EMAIL) PROTOCOL
16.1 Overview
Electronic mail, often abbreviated as email or e-mail, is a method of exchanging digital messages,
designed primarily for human use. Email has been implemented using SMTP protocol in OCS.
An electronic mail message consists of two components, the message header, and the message body,
which is the email's content. The message header contains control information, including, an originator's
email address and one or more recipient addresses. Usually additional information is added, such as a
subject header field.
