Subject: Document Action: 'Internet Mail Architecture' to
Informational RFC
Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2009 15:59:19 -0700 (PDT)
From: The IESG <iesg-secretary(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org>
To: IETF-Announce <ietf-announce(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org>
CC: Internet Architecture Board <iab(_at_)iab(_dot_)org>, RFC Editor
<rfc-editor(_at_)rfc-editor(_dot_)org>
The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'Internet Mail Architecture '
<draft-crocker-email-arch-14.txt> as an Informational RFC
This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an
IETF Working Group.
The IESG contact person is Alexey Melnikov.
A URL of this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-crocker-email-arch-14.txt
Technical Summary
Public discussion of the Internet Mail service often lacks
common terminology and a common frame of reference for these
components and their activities. Having a common reference
model and terminology makes a basic difference when talking
about problems with the service, changes in policy, or
enhancement to the service's functionality. This document
offers an enhanced Internet Mail architecture that targets
description of the existing service, in order to facilitate
clearer and more efficient technical, operations and policy
discussions about email.
Working Group Summary
This document was discussed within the mail community on the
mailing lists dedicated to SMTP and the Mail Format. Some of the
terms came about as a compromise after long discussions, but
rough consensus was achieved on all points. Members of the
working groups dealing with IMAP and LEMONADE were aware of this
effort, but it was not an appropriate topic for those working
groups to place on their charters. There is no other current
working group dealing with the mail system in general.
Document Quality
This document does not create a protocol specification.
The acknowledgments indicate that Graham Klyne, Pete Resnick
and Steve Atkins provided thoughtful insight on the framework
and details of the original drafts. A number of other people
have provided additional reviews and insights.
Personnel
Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Tony Hansen
Who is the Responsible Area Director? Chris Newman and Alexey Melnikov
have reviewed this document for IESG.
RFC Editor Note
Please replace [RFC3685] with [RFC5235].
In Section 3.4.1, 2nd paragraph, 1st sentence:
