X.400-Based Enterprise Messaging System: Industry and Department of Defense Implementation Issues

Abstract

In an unprecedented globally competitive market, industry demands an electronic mail or messaging system that will transport all forms of data. The Consultative Committee for International Telegraphy and Telephony (CCITT) X.400 family of standards is a messaging transport standard that facilitates international message exchange. Combined with an appropriate network architecture, the series provides a complete package for transport of electronic objects such as digitized voice, documents, forms, graphics, images, spread sheets and text. The purpose of this thesis is to provide DoD technicians and managers, who will be utilizing X.400-based E-Mail within the Defense Message System (DMS), with a thorough discussion of the X.400 standards. Highlighted by industry examples, possible, conceptual solutions for incorporating the standards into existing electronic messaging environments are provided. Electronic mail, Defense message system, Consultative Committee for International Telegraphy and Telephony (CCITT) X.400/X.500 Series recommendations. System, Consultative Committee for International Recommendations.
