One of the missing features in the existing Internet mail and
messaging standards is a facility for server-to-server and server-to-
client event notifications related to message store events.  As the
scope of Internet mail expands to support more diverse media (such as
voice mail) and devices (such as cell phones) and to provide rich
interactions with other services (such as web portals and legal
compliance systems), the need for an interoperable notification
system increases.  This document attempts to enumerate the types of
events that interest real-world consumers of such a system.

This document describes events and event parameters that are useful
for several cases, including notification to administrative systems
and end users.  This is not intended as a replacement for a message
access facility such as IMAP.  [STANDARDS TRACK]

This document is a product of the Enhancements to Internet email to support diverse service environments Working Group of the IETF.

protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
