Résumé
email than any other Internet application. As the number of email users swells, and as email takes on an ever greater role in
personal and business communication, Internet mail protocols have become not just an enabling technology for messaging,
but a programming interface on top of which core applications are built. Programming Internet Email unmasks the Internet
Mail System and shows how a loose federation of connected networks have combined to form the world's largest and most
heavily trafficked message system.
Programming Internet Email tames the Internet's most
popular messaging service. For programmers building
applications on
top of email capabilities, and power users trying to get
under the hood of their own email systems, Programming
Internet
Email stands out as an essential guide and reference book.
In typical O'Reilly fashion, Programming Internet Email
covers
the topic with nineteen tightly written chapters and five
useful appendixes.
Following a thorough introduction to the Internet Mail
System, the book is divided into five parts:
- Part I covers email formats, from basic text messages
to the guts of MIME. Secure email message formats
(OpenPGP
and S/MIME), mailbox formats and other commonly used formats are detailed in this reference section.
- Part II describes Internet email protocols: SMTP and
ESMTP, POP3 and IMAP4. Each protocol is covered in detail
to
expose the Internet Mail System's inner workings.
- Part III provides a solid API reference for programmers
working in Perl and Java. Class references are given
for
commonly used Perl modules that relate to email and the Java Mail API.
- Part IV provides clear and concise examples of how to
incorporate email capabilities into your applications.
Examples
are given in both Perl and Java.
- Part V covers the future of email on the Internet.
Means and methods for controlling spam email and newly
proposed
Internet mail protocols are discussed.
- Appendixes to Programming Internet Email provide
a host of explanatory information and useful references for
the
programmer and avid user alike, including a comprehensive list of Internet RFCs relating to email, MIME types and a
list of email related URLs.
Programming Internet Email will answer all of your
questions about mail and extend your abilities into this
most popular
messaging frontier.
