The increasing importance of messaging as a potential source of
revenue for mobile networks has led operators to build or procure
mobile messaging solutions. Some operators have built mobile
messaging solutions using IETF standards (IMAP, SMTP, MIME). Another
solution has been developed by consensus in the 3GPP and OMA groups,
based on MIME, HTTP methods and WAP PUSH, which has been deployed by
many operators.
This document presents a taxonomy of messaging architecture
components and models, providing a comparison of their feature sets.
It also identifies the commonalities of these mobile messaging
solutions and abstracts from these a set of mobile messaging
requirements.
The information is provided to inform and encourage future discussion
of and improvements to Internet messaging in order to increase their
applicability to mobile messaging systems.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-stebrose-mmsarch-00.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
