Carter, Networking Manager") Newsgroups: comp.protocols.tcp-ip Subject: Certified SMTP mail Message-ID: Date: 8 Feb 91 16:50:00 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 17 We have recently installed a new NOVELL mail system called PMAIL. One of the features allows you to request a confirmation once the mail message is delivered. I think this is an EXCELLENT idea. I had previously thought of this before, so when I saw it I was happy. This is accomplished by putting a line in the headers that only PMAIL recognizes. Now to the point. What would other people think of making some sort of standard header line that other mailers can act on? It's not hard to understand, and is easy to implement. So, let's hear what you think. If people choose to reply to me, I will count the votes and summarize to the net and take appropriate action.
