I'm going to be totally anal now. RFC 5321 obsoleted 2821 in 2008. Also, SMTP isn't the same as e-mail. Just like IMAP isn't the same as e-mail.

- ciupicri 16y agoIMAP are POP3 optional. /var/spool/mail/$USER or ~/mobx were enough some time ago, although right now not everyone is running their own mail (smtp) server.
- mike-cardwell 16y agoSo is SMTP... How about LMTP? IMO "email" is a combination of the various transport technologies and the message format.
