I do not understand how this improves the architecture discussion. What
problems does it solve?
One reason was to introduce the "novice mail concepts" of mailclient and
mailserver in the mailarchitecture.
So that novices (like me) can grasp what is ment by an MUA, MTA ect.
An architecture specification is not intended as a tutorial for beginners.
That
is a very different requirement.
An architecture document like this is intended to be a technical specification
of functional components for a service.
