Information Technology - International Standardized Profiles AMH1n - Message Handling Systems - Common Messaging - Part 3: AMH11 - Message Transfer (P1)
Scope:
1.1 General
This part of ISO/IEC ISP 10611 (AMH11) covers message transfer between message transfer agents (MTAs) using the P1 Message Transfer Protocol (see also figure 1). These specifications form part of the Common Messaging application functions, as defined in the parts of ISO/IEC ISP 10611, which form a common basis for content type-dependent International Standardized Profiles for MHS that will be developed.
An MTA which conforms to profiles AMH11n as specified in this part of ISO/IEC ISP 10611 shall support a 'normal mode' OSI protocol infrastructure (AMH111) as required by both ISO/IEC 10021-6 and the ITU-T X.400 Recommendations, and may additionally support an 'X.410 mode' OSI protocol infrastructure (AMH112) as required, for ADMDs, by the ITU-T X.400 Recommendations.
1.2 Position within the taxonomy
This part of ISO/IEC ISP 10611 is the third part of a multipart ISP identified in ISO/IEC TR 10000-2 as "AMH1, Message Handling Systems - Common Messaging".
This part of ISO/IEC ISP 10611 specifies the following profiles:
AMH111 - Message Transfer (P1) - Normal mode
AMH112 - Message Transfer (P1) - X.410(1984) mode
The AMH11n profiles may be combined with any T-Profiles (see ISO/IEC TR 10000) specifying the OSI connection-mode Transport service.
1.3 Scenario
The model used is one of two or more MTAs intercommunicating within a Message Transfer System (MTS) using the P1 protocol, as shown in figure 1.
NOTE - In an ITU-T context, a domain may be treated as an MTA for the purposes of conformance to the AMH11n profiles.
The AMH11n profiles cover all aspects of the MTA Abstract Service, as defined in clause 12 of ISO/IEC 10021-4, when realized using the P1 protocol
